Peer-to-peer (P2P) is one of the three modes supported by the TRF7970A. The Near Field Communication (NFC) market is emerging into multiple fields including Medical, Consumer, Retail, Industrial, Auto
The FPD-Link chipset architecture in conjunction with the LVDS technology provides the high bandwidth interface necessary for leading edge display technology. The conversion from parallel TTL to seria
This application note presents a software and hardware interface of the ADS8383 18-bit 500 kHz analog-to-digital converter to the TMS320C6711 DSP. The hardware platform used to develop this application is ADS8383EVM and TMS320C6711 DSK. The software developed reads 1024 blocks of samples continuously from ADS8383. In an effort to reduce development time the source code is available on TI's websit
The output voltage of a linear regulator tends to rise quickly after it is enabled. This often results in the nonmonotonic rise of the output voltage (i.e., the output voltage overshoots, then dips),
Unbuffered multiplexed ratiometric analog-to-digital converters (ADC) have strict requirements on driving source impedance that are not always obvious. This application report addresses the trade-offs
The Flash-programmable 16-MHz MSP430AFE253 device developed by Texas Instruments is a highly flexible and powerful single-chip mixed-signal measurement device targeting electricity meter and sub-meter applications. In such applications high reliability and accuracy of better than 0.1% is often required.This applicaton report demonstrates robust real-time embedded software running on the MSP43
The TPS61040 is a highly integrated, low-power, boost converter capable of delivering output voltages up to 28 V with input voltages up to 6 V. However, using an external transistor in a cascode confi
The increase of power density has resulted in the need for accurate measurement of die junctiontemperature. This application report is a basic overview of thermal evaluation and provides an accurateevaluation method of junction temperature in a real application. The evaluation method described in thisapplication is confirmed with bench measurements. This method is proven to be easy to use an
Selecting the right operational amplifier for a specific application requires you to have your design goals clearly in mind along with a firm understanding of what the published specifications mean.
A controller area network (CAN) is ideally suited to the many high-level industrial protocols embracing CAN and ISO-11898:1993 as their physical layer. Its cost, performance, and upgradeability provid
The IEEE standard boundary scan framework and four-wire serial testablity are having a positive impact on testing all levels of electronic assembly. The two form a basis from which other techniques are developed to facilitate testing of chips and systems. This document shows how existing architectures can be modified to conform to IEEE 1149.1 architecture. A boundary BIST approach is described and
Texas Instruments (TI?) announces the industry?s first logic family to achieve maximum propagation delays of less than 2 ns at 2.5 V. TI?s next-generation logic is the Advanced Very-low-voltage CMOS (AVC) family. Although optimized for 2.5-V systems AVC logic supports mixed-voltage systems because it is compatible with 3.3-V and 1.8-V devices. The AVC family features TI?s Dynamic Output Control (
This application report summarizes the key differences between the enhanced direct memory access (EDMA3) used on C64x+™ DSP devices and the EDMA2 used on TMS320C64x™ DSP devices, and provi
The purpose of this application report is to present the flow the environment settings and TI requirements used to perform the analysis of critical power nets of a platform using an application processor. The Power Delivery Network (PDN) performance is measured by extracting and analyzing three printed circuit board (PCB) parameters: DC resistivity capacitor loop inductance and broadband target
