The UC3625 brushless DC-motor control IC incorporates many useful features that greatly simplify the design of low-cost and reliable brushless DC-motor drive systems. Although the controller IC is designed for ease of circuit implementation a few precautions are necessary to insure proper operation. This design note discusses a few situations in which the IC may not operate correctly if suitable
Use of 4-mA to 20-mA (4-20 mA) current loops has become the standard in the process-control industry due to their increased resistance to noise compared to voltage-modulated signals. TI digital signal processors (DSPs) increasingly are becoming the standard for microcontrollers in a control application. Therefore an opportunity exists to connect the many sensors and electromechanical devices on t
The Motor Control industry is a strong aggressive sector. Each industry to remain competitive, must reduce costs but also has to answer to power consumption reduction and EMI radiation reduction iss

Well-suited forgeneral-purpose use the TMS320C31 is finding widespread acceptance asan embedded controller in applications such as: Industrial automation Telecommunications Motor control Automotive Instrumentation Laser printers Scanners
This Application Report will walk through the thermal design of power supplies using the LM43603 and LM46002.In the process we will cover common tips and approximations to speed up your design.
Extending on the widely-adopted OMAP?1510 processor the more powerful OMAP1610 processor is a single-chip application processor that supports all cellular standards and complements any modem or chipset and any air interface. To ensure the seamless scalability throughout the OMAP processor family the OMAP161x devices feature the same dual-core architecture of the OMAP1510 processor allowing dev
This application brief presents phase-noise data taken on Texas Instruments CDC7005 jitter cleaner and synchronizer PLL. The phase noise performance of CDC7005 depends on thephase noise of the reference clock the voltage-controlled crystal oscillator (VCXO) clockand the CDC7005 itself. This applications brief shows the phase noise performance of the CDC7005 clock synthesizer at the most popula
TI frame transfer charge coupled devices (CCD) image sensors can be used in a wide variety of applications with the following topology options: one to three serial registers transfer gates a multiplexer separate reset lines center clearing drains and electron-hole recombination or lateral-overflow-drain antiblooming protection. This document describes the timing design for the TI frame transf
A low-side, current-sensing resistor in a fast-charge control circuit generates a small voltage drop between the low side of the battery pack and ground. This drop is not a problem in most cases; howe
