When designing a high frequency switching regulated power supply layout is very important. Using agood layout can solve many problems associated with these types of supplies. The problems due to a badlayout are often seen at high current levels and are usually more obvious at large input to output voltagedifferentials. Some of the main problems are loss of regulation at high output current
System developers concerned about minimizing the current draw of TRF7960 -60A (and their variants) systems at startup time need guidance about handling the Regulator Control register (0x0B) value. Guidance is necessary due to the conditions under which the TRF796x/-6xA starts up with the automatic (default) setting of this register after the EN line (pin 28) is asserted from the controlling MCU
This chapter reprinted from Proceedings of the IEEE describes the origin and development of the TMS320 Family of Digital Signal Processors. The topics covered include:- An overview of the characteristics of digital signal processing- A history describing how digital signal processing has evolved over the last several decades- A description of the three generations of the TMS320 fam
This application report describes the TPS33x-xx supply-voltage supervisor (SVS) families of devices. The report gives a general introduction on generator resetting followed by an overview of the technical parameters and the special features of the TPS330x. Each feature is discussed separately. Measurements make it easy to understand SVS principles of operation. Typical applications that increase

Proper mounting of TO-3 packages is required to assure rated performance and reliability. Although the procedures are simple ignoring them can result in poor performance and catastrophic failure of the device.
This document describes the Texas Instruments (TI)(tm) LVDS Serdes 48 evaluation module (EVM) kit. The LVDS Serdes 48 EVM kit is used to evaluate and design high data throughput prototypes using the
Viterbi decoder lies at the heart of all of the wireless standards. Viterbi coprocessors (VCP2) are programmable peripherals used to decode convolutional codes. It is integrated into Texas Instruments TMS320TCI648x digital signal processor (DSP). This application report gives the channel density for VCP2 under various conditions the CPU load for pre-processing VCP2 input data is also provided.
