This application report provides an overview of electrostatic-discharge (ESD) test models failure modes protection strategies and Texas Instruments (TI) procedures to guard against ESD failures.
The MSP430 series of microcontrollers are ideal in applications where battery life is critical. These microcontollers require only 0.1?A of current in low-power RAM retention mode; In this mode the
This document describes a C language simulation of the transmit and receive baseband processing for a digital cellular telephone which meets the U.S. digital cellular standard IS-54B. The application uses the TMS320 family of digital signal processors (DSPs). A code source is cited in this document along with an extensive reference list.
This reference design is presented to help application designers and others who are trying to use the MSP430 in a system with an input voltage in the range of 3.6 V to 6 V with the primary design objective to minimize solution size as well as to maintain high efficiency and long battery life.
This document discusses how to perform an automatic system boot-up at hardware reset when the TMS320C4x devices are directly connected to each other. A block diagram and several code examples are provided.
The buck converter with adopted voltage mode current mode constant on-time control and adaptive on-time control (D-CAP™ mode) are discussed in detail in terms of their control methods and their transient performances. The advantages of the D-CAP mode applicable to the portable applications are presented based on this analysis. The jitter mechanism in the D-CAP mode is studied and an improveme
This application report describes the methods for profiling on ROM and techniques for counting inclusive cycle counts. First profiling will be described in some detail and then two examples will be given to demonstrate how to statistically view inclusive cycle counts on ROM.Requirements- Microsoft Windows 98 2000 or NT- TI Code Composer Studio? for Microsoft Windows (version 2.0 or
An ever-increasing number of appliances incorporate Ethernet connectivity. With the popularity of the Internet IP protocol connectivity is required in many applications. In this application note we present a functional structure for an Ethernet driver and a mini IP/UDP stack that can be incorporated in any Internet appliance. This driver structure is flexible to allow for hardware changes (changi
