This application report provides a methodology for calculating the useful lifetime of TI embedded processors (EP) under power when used in electronic systems. It is aimed at general engineers who wish

AN-664 ISDN Basic Rate Interface Terminal Equipment (TE) System Design Guide

This report shows how to interface TLV2541 and TLV5636 12-bit serial data converters to the TMS320C5402<TM> DSP via the McBSP. It presents a hardware solution and a software solution to interface the

The strong interest in this application report leads us to publish a second edition. In addition to changes and updates made throughout all sections, new parts have been added, such as M?LVDS, CAN, Cl

SLIO-CAN CAN-Linked I/O Based on COP884BC

The interfacing of the 3-V MSP430x1xx and MSP430x4xx microcontroller families to circuits with a supply of 5 V or higher is shown. Input, output and I/O interfaces are given and explained. Worse-case

Block floating-point (BFP) implementation provides an innovative method of floating-point emulation. This application report implements the BFP algorithm for the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm on a Texas Instruments (TI) TMS320C54x DSP by taking advantage of the exponent encoder and normalization units on the DSP. The BFP algorithm as it applies to the FFT allows fractional signal gain adj

The PGA450-Q1 device must be optimized and fine-tuned for each particular application. All supporting materials provided by TI for the PGA450-Q1 have been optimized for Texas Instruments' lab-bench setup. The PGA450-Q1 device is not ensured to perform identically in an end-user’s test environment because of varying environmental factors.
These factors include temperature humidity air p

DN606 -- CC-Antenna-DK Board #10 OTA Test Results (868 MHz & 915 MHz) with EB

In recent years Passive Go (PG) systems for motorcycles have been developed that have been copied from automotive Passive Entry and Passive Start (PEPS) systems. But for bikes with no requirement to unlock doors or roll down windows at a distance such systems are over-designed with their UHF uplinks. The MCU RF group at Texas Instruments has developed a complete low-frequency approach to this pr

The NFC Forum and the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) collaborated to produce an application document entitled, NFC Forum Bluetooth Secure Simple Pairing Using NFC application document located

The switcher with integrated FETs (SWIFT?) TPS5461x family of internally compensated synchronous buck regulators offers a quick and easy solution to many power supply applications. These devices require a minimum of six additional components. The design procedure is simple and can be accomplished with the five basic steps outlined in this application report.

This design notes shows the hot swap designer how to control a ?5V rail using a UCC3919 Hot Swap Power Manager. This technique could also be applied using other positive Hot Swap Power Managers. Two c

The ISO120/121/122 isolation amplifiers (ISO amps) have a small (10-20mVp-p typ) residual demodulator ripple at the output. A simple filter can be added to eliminate the output ripple without decreasing the 50kHz signal bandwidth of the ISO amp.

AN-335 Digital PLL Synthesis

This power supply was designed to power the transceivers in the Xilinx? Virtex?-5 LXT and FXT platforms.

This application brief takes the low-cost heart-rate monitor solution (based on the LaunchPad with MSP430G2452) one step further by adding multiple tasks and a robust software framework on the MSPEXP430F5438 Experimenter Board. The uC/OS-II Real Time Kernel from Micrium handles the execution of multiple tasks in order of their priorities: heart-rate monitoring heart-beat audio output beats-per-m
