TMS470 microcontroller devices built using the F05 flash process have a built-in mechanism for detecting weak or degraded flash bits before they fail. A way of using this mechanism is discussed in this application report.

Digital visual interface (DVI) may be thought of as a plug in card interface with significant size and complexity. It can however, be easy to implement DVI on a motherboard using the Intel 865G chipse

Driving High-Speed Signals in Data Center Servers and Storage Area Networks

This program is designed to verify the operation of DSP devices in the TMS320C62x? DSP family by checking for proper operation of the CPU core and internal RAM. On-chip peripherals are not tested since doing so would be target system dependent. It is important to note that this program only provides a confidence check. It is not as comprehensive as the tests done at production which thoroughly ch

This application note discusses various types of skew, propagation delays, and phase error/phase offset in general. Special attention is given to important parameters that are used in TI clock distrib

This application report explains how Texas Instruments' PHYTER products help system designers toreduce radiated emissions in Ethernet 10/100 LAN applications.

This application report describes the configuration changes in the data flash constants in the Texas Instruments bq20z80 Gas Gauge Evaluation Software for a variety of battery-pack configurations.

This document describes the linear feedback shift register (LFSR), fault grading, pseudorandom pattern generation (PRPG), and a parallel signature analyser (PSA). An LFSR and PSA are used to test a T

Users of the bq27000 and bq27200 ICs can program ten EEPROM locations to optimize setups for particular battery and host requirements. This application report describes how to configure these ICs for those requirements.

This document shows a solution to enhance the start-up performance of the TPS603x charge pumps. With the circuitry shown, the device can drive at start-up into full load (40 mA).

Designers need a wide range of fine-pitch surface mount packages to meet today?s systems constraints in broad area and total volume. The SSOP and SQFP packages allow bus-interface logic devices to meet the wider data bus trends and provide superior electrical performance while minimizing space requirements. This document discusses the evolution of bus-interface packages their impedance the 3.3-

This report presents algorithm and code implementing floating-point addition subtraction multiplication and division with the TMS320. The support of floating-point operations by the TI processors has made possible some applications such as implementation of the CCITT Adaptive Differential Pulse Code Modulation (ADPCM) algorithm and image/graphics operations.

Ground loops can be introduced when different components in audio systems are connected with standardaudio cables and these loops can cause annoying interference. In many cases the interference can bereduced significantly with a ground loop break (GLB) circuit including a low-value resistor and differentialamplifiers. This paper explains this approach and how to design a GLB circuit.

This report describes the coding requirements techniques and decisions whichmust be made to utilize the TMS320C80 DSP as an integrated services digitalnetwork (ISDN) video-system manager and provides an overview on how theprocessor handles video signal in the ISDN narrow-band format in conformancewith the International Telecommunications Union (ITU)?T H.261 Recommendation.

Increasing performance requirements of personal computers that necessitate a larger number of SDRAMs and DIMMs can be met by an FET-switch muliplexer. Four devices for memory interleaving for the 440BX and other core-logic chipsetsincorporate internal pulldown resistors damping resistors and make-before-break features that increase speed while maintaining minimal simultaneous-switching noise.
