The bq2060 is a Smart Battery System (SBS) 1.1-compliant gas-gauge IC for battery-pack or in-system installation. It maintains an accurate record of available charge in rechargeable NiCd NiMH Li-ion lead acid and other battery chemistries. This application note provides additional information and recommendations for voltage-to-frequency converter offset calibration and digital-filter threshold
Operation of op amps from single supply voltages is useful when negative supply voltages are not available. Furthermore certain applications using high voltage and high current op amps can derive important benefits from single supply operation.
When the DC input voltage to a buck converter has a wide range, it becomes important to not only select a suitable switching regulator IC for the application, but to select the power components to ha
Ultra-Low Power 27-MHz Wireless Mouse Reference Design Application ReportThe Texas Instruments (TI) MSP430 is a family of microcontrollers typically used in many high-performance low-power human interface device (HID) applications such as a wireless mouse or keyboard. This application report describes a fully-functional production-ready wireless mouse reference design consisting of TI's MSP4
The UCC5343 evaluation board is a complete interface of the IrDA physical layer to a standard UART at speeds up to 115Kbps. The user needs to supply power, an IrDA-compliant input pulse train and a UA
This application report enables easy migration from MSP430F2xx Flash-based MCUs to the MSP430FR57xx family FRAM-based MCU. It covers programming system and peripheral considerations when migrating firmware. The purpose is to highlight differences between the two families. For more information on the usage of the MSP430FR57xx features see the MSP430FR57xx Family User's Guide (
Many CCD imaging applications require digital processing the first stage of which is the conversion of an analog signal to a digital one. Several trade-offs are required by the conversion: cost versus performance speed of conversion versus bits of resolution serial versus parallel conversion and which CCD techniques should be performed in the analog versus the digital domain. This document di
The setup time for a repeat block is four cycles. This document shows how a designer can move most of the setup to an initialization phase and reduce the overhead during algorithm execution. Code examples are given comparing the standard algorithm to the faster algorithm.
This application report discusses the digital microphone input function of the TLV320AIC33 codec device and provides an example and step-by-step details for applying the function with AIC33EVM/US-MODEM System.
The UC3875 UC3879 and UC3895 families of ICs control a bridge power stage by phase-shifting the switching of one half-bridge with respect to the other. This method allows constant-frequency pulse-width modulation in combination with resonant zero-voltage switching for high efficiency performance. These ICs can be configured to provide control in either voltage mode or current mode operation wi
