In systems using multiple LMH0030 serializer and LMH0031 deserializer devices it is often convenient to connect their ancillary data and control ports to a host controller using a bus network. This reduces the amount of wiring and PCB area required for this function. When designing such a network it is necessary to understand how the devices are controlled and used in a manner similar to micropr

Successful circuit designs using high-speed amplifiers can depend upon understanding and identifying parasitic PCB components. Simulating a design while including PCB parasitics can protect against unpleasant production surprises. This application report discusses an easy method for measuring parasitic components in a prototype or final PC board design by using a standard oscilloscope and low freq

The goals for this porting guide is to help developers accurately assess the effort to port an existing application from one MSP platform to another, ultimately to derive a porting strategy with compl

This document presents a method to smoothly change frequency by I²C? protocol on Texas Instruments CDCE(L)949, CDCE(L)937, CDCE(L)925, CDCE(L)913 Clock Synthesizers, thus avoiding unnecessary int

TCA8424 OTP Creation Guide

The process of filtering an analog signal removes all frequencies above or below a corner frequency passing only a band of frequencies or rejecting a band of frequencies. When digital signals are filtered however a totally different set of constraints applies. This application note gives the designer a set of tools for implementing a filter that is the best compromise of interference rejecti

This application report discusses maximizing start-up loads with the LM3352 regulated buck/boost switched capacitor converter.

bq51221 Layout Guidelines for Wireless Power Receiver (Generation 3

Time Division Duplexing (TDD) is a communication technique allowing for two-way communication within the same frequency band by alternating the transmission times of a device. An important parameter for devices in these TDD-transmission systems is the transient response of the adjusted carrier feedthrough when the devices are rapidly turned on and turned off. When a device transitions to the activ

Fully differential op amps may be unfamiliar to some designers. This application report gives designers the essential information to get a fully differential design up and running.
