Texas InstrumentsAs high-performance processors continue to develop, their respective power-supply requirements become more stringent, often requiring low, custom voltages and increasingly tighter regulation. Intel's
Migrating from TMS320VC549 to TMS320VC5409 (Rev. C)
Texas InstrumentsThis document describes issues of interest related to migration from the TMS320VC549 to the TMS320VC5409. The objective of this document is to indicate differences between the two devices. Functions that are identical between the two devices are not included. For detailed information on the specific functions of either device refer to the device data sheets and/or the TMS320C54x DSP CPU and Perip
10-cm Capacitive Proximity Detection With MSP430 Microcontrollers (Rev. A)
Texas InstrumentsThe PinOsc feature of the MSP430 microcontroller value line family provides a simple and straight forward mechanism to measure capacitance. The PinOsc feature not only allows for touch detection but also provides enough sensitivity to support proximity applications. This application report demonstrates a 10+-cm proximity detection BoosterPack design solution. The software uses the PinOsc feature a

U-154 The New UC3879 Phase-Shifted PWM Controller Simplifies the Design
Texas InstrumentsThis application note introduces the UC3879 integrated circuit and compares its performance to that of its predecessors the UC3875/6/7/8 controller family. These integrated circuits provide all necessary control decoding protection and drive functions to successfully manage the operation of the full-bridge converter with phase-shifted control. This integrated solution greatly simplifies the de
Pushing the envelope with high-performance digital-isolation technology
Texas InstrumentsIsolation is a means of preventing DC and uncontrolled AC currents between two parts of a system, while allowing signal and power transfer between those two parts. Electronic devices and integrated circuits (ICs) used for isolation are called isolators. Isolation is required in modern electrical systems for a variety of reasons. Some examples include protecting human operators and preventing damage to expensive processors in highvoltage systems, breaking the ground loop in communication networks, and communicating to high-side devices in motor-drive or power-converter systems (Figure 1). Examples of applications that need isolation include industrial automation systems, motor drives, medical equipment, solar inverters, power supplies, and electric vehicles (EVs).
Recent advances in isolation technology are enabling new solutions, reducing system cost, and allowing customers to push the performance envelope of their equipment. This article discusses key end applications that are driving cutting-edge innovations in isolation technology and benefitting from these innovations.
Accessing Status and Control Fields and I/O Ports in the TMS320Cxx HLL Debugger
Texas InstrumentsThe ARP along with the data page pointer (DP) carry bit (C) and a variety of other fields are located in the status registers of the 'C5x. These registers are displayed in the CPU register window of the HLL debugger but it is inconvenient to observe the value of any one individual field.The HLL debugger has two features that can help display the desired field(s) in an easy-to-observe manner.
