This quick start guide is intended to assist existing users of the MSP430 line of products in converting existing code to the new MSP430x5xx modules. While the modules operate in accordance with previ

This application report is a collection of PSpice compatible models for Texas Instruments amplifiers.

If the input voltage to a TPS249X controlled system is reversed, The TPS249X will be destroyed and the load will be exposed to the reverse voltage. This app note proposes a solution for both. A sche

Clause #33 PSE conformance testing performed on the TPS23861EVM-613.

This reference design takes into account the voltage current and start-up requirements of the TMS320F280x Digital Signal Processor (DSP) families. The operating input voltage ranges from 3.4 V to 6 V. This design is a high-efficiency solution that provides two voltage rails (1.8-V core supply and 3.3-V I/O supply) and an active-low reset signal to the DSP. This design can be easily adapted to fi

During various occasions a digital amplifier can generate a click or a pop. The click is generated at changes of the operational modes of the amplifier e.g. charging ofcapacitors or mute/unmute. For Class D amplifier systems click is typically at PWM start and stop. The audibility of a click depends on the system amplifier and speaker. Also perception of the click is subjective. This

This document describes the FlatLinkE point-to-point data-transmission interface that provides better than a two-to-one reduction in the number of signal lines used for synchronous parallel data-bus structures.

The run-time support library (RTS) supplied with each TI DSP C/C++ compiler provides C language I/O (CIO) in the form of the high-level functions such as fopen and printf and the low-level functions such as open and write which use device drivers to complete CIO requests. The RTS provides a way for the user to define a new device driver. This provides an easy way to use the sophisticated bufferi

This application report discusses a circuit that can be used when a light-emitting diode is required to indicate that a port is on that is powered in a TPS2384 system.

The TMS470 family of ARM7 microcontrollers has up to five I2C ports available depending on which device is selected. The TMS470 I2C engine is very flexible and powerful. This document describes how to read and write I2C data and how to select the I2C clock rate.

This report presents two methods of sine-wave generation. The first method is a fast direct table lookup scheme suitable for applications where speech is critical. The second approach an enhancement of the first includes linear interpolation to provide higher accurate waveforms.

A small monitor program for the MSP430F1xx and MSP430F4xx microcontrollers that incorporate at least one integrated USART provides a facility for examining the device memory and updating the flash con

MSP430™ microcontroller based capacitive touch buttons can offer increased performance when properly optimized and tuned for their specific application. Performance benefits that result from but

TMS320DM365, TPS65053 High Integration, High Efficiency Power Solution using DCDC Converters for TMS32

This application report contrasts and compares the characteristics and capabilities of voltage and current feedback operational amplifiers. The report also points out the many similarities between the two versions.

This glossary is a collection of the definitions of Texas Instruments' Delta-Sigma (ΔΣ) successive approximation register (SAR) and pipeline analog-to-digital (A/D) converter specifications and performance characteristics. Although there is a considerable amount of detail in this document the product data sheet for a particular product specification is the best and final reference.
