This paper gives and introduction on Image Coding based on Fractals and develops a simple algorithm to be used as a reference design.The Fractal Coding System described in this project was developed from the ideas proposed by Arnaud Jacquin in his paper published in IEEE Trans. Image Coding Based on Fractal Theory of Iterated Contractive Image TransformationTwo implementations of the pro
This application report describes the hardware and software needed to interface the TLC5618A dual 12-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) to the TMS320C203 digital signal processor (DSP). The solutio
This application report describes how to use timer_A3 to implement a UART function. The included examples are specifially for the MSP430x11x(1) family, but they can be adapted to any MSP430 family mem
The IC voltage comparators available in the past have been designed primarily for low voltage high-speedoperation. As a result these devices have high input error currents which limit their usefulness in highimpedance circuitry. An IC is described here that drastically reduces these error currents with only amoderate decrease in speed.
Signal termination is very common in bidirectional communication systems. Termination allows for receiving signals while transmitting different signals at the same time. With the increasing popularity of asymmetrical digital subscriber lines (ADSL) the requirement for a low power line driver amplifier combined with line termination becomes a very difficult goal. This application note examines the
This document discusses the power consumption of the Texas Instruments TMS320C6474 digital signal processor (DSP). The power consumption on the TMS320C6474 device is highly application-dependent; therefore a power spreadsheet that estimates power consumption is provided along with this application report. This spreadsheet can be used to model power consumption for user applications such as power
This application report shows how to implement a single channel active adaptive noise canceller with the low cost Texas Instruments (TI(TM)) TMS320C50 ('C50) digital signal processor (DSP) starter kit (DSK). Once the needed equipment is obtained building a functional active noise canceller is easy with the help of this application report. The canceller uses a feedback control topology and is desi
Below are suggested EMI guidelines to follow when designing a 1394 board. These guidelines are in addition to the Recommendations for PHY Layout application note # SLLA020A. Not all must be followed but rather they are suggestions. For example if you are designing a board that will go into a desktop PC then more attention should be paid to keeping RF noise from coupling onto the traces that co
The UCC3926 integrates a current-sense element and differential amplifier in a single device. This design note describes an evaluation board for the UCC3926. The current-sense element is essentially n
Low power consumption is a major advantage of TI FIFO products. Power calculations are required to meet design requirements for chip temperature and system power. This document assists component and system designers in evaluating power consumption for the ACT and ABT FIFO products. Two examples of power calculations one for the SN74ACT3632 bi-directional CMOS FIFO and one for the BiCMOS SN74ABT36
This document describes the organization structure and proper usage of the TI serializer and deserializer (SerDes) IBIS-AMI models for Keystone DSP Hyperlink interface.
