With their low-input currents, FET input op amps are universally used in monitoring photodetectors, the most common of which are photodiodes. There are a variety of amplifier connections for this purp
To conclude the review of the UCC28517 PFC supply, this article covers the design of the second 12-V, 8-W power stage to be used as an auxiliary bias supply.
This application report describes a method of implementing the digital peak current mode control of a power supply using the Texas Instruments Piccolo™ MCUs. The theory of operation and all relevant equations are given as well as a design example and complete compile ready project files. The implementation method described is similar to that taught in Digital Power Design Workshops delivere
This design note describes a programmable electronic circuit breaker that uses the UC3843A control IC to facilitate a high-speed turnoff following an overcurrent condition. This low-cost industry-standard IC contains the required protection features and drive capability in a single 8-pin device.
This application note introduces DSP/BIOS 5.x users to SYS/BIOS 6. It provides details and an example about using the legacy support. It further provides advice about migrating applications to take ad
This application note demonstrates the use of TI?s Zero Iq Reverse Polarity Protection Smart Diode Controllers- LM74610-Q1 as a highly effective solution in redundant N+1 power supply arrangement. It
This application note is intended as a guide for the designer tasked to amplify the small signal from a photodiode or avalanche diode so that it would be large enough for further processing
This application report describes an FIR filter implementation using the MSP430F16x and the MSP430F161x family devices. The complete filter algorithm is executed by the 3-channel DMA peripheral and th
The DSP Hardware Designer's Resource Guide is organized by development flow and functional areas to make your design effort as seamless as possible. Topics covered include getting started, board desi
The UC3907 family of Load Share Controller ICs provides all the necessary features to allow multiple independent power modules to be paralleled so each module supplies only its proportionate share to total load current. Many power supply manufacturers have found it economically feasible to make standard modular power supplies which are easily paralleled for higher current applications. If speci
Since most of the deployed W-CDMA networks use FDD mode only and the W-CDMA FDD has fastclosed-loop power control in both uplink and downlink hardware implementation for RF power detection indownlink from user equipment to base station is needed in order to meet the required air interfacestandard. This application report suggests application subsystem circuits for use in closed-loop power
This technical brief was developed to provide you with details about our 512KFlash memory device that aren?t available in data sheets or application notes.We hope you find this information package helpful and easy to use.
This application report describes a low-cost heart-rate monitor solution based on the MSP430? LaunchPad Value Line Development Kit (<a href=http://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/msp-exp430g2.h
With the introduction of the TMS320C2xx (C2xx) family of low-cost digital signal processors (DSPs) many customers are discovering that they can utilize this DSP family for designs that previously required the processing power of a TMS320C5x (C5x) DSP. Although some code has been written for the C2xx reuse of the large repository of C5x application code can dramatically speed up designs using the
This application note introduces Texas Instrument’s LVDS devices with built-in pre-emphasis andequalization circuits recommends when it makes sense to employ them with the FPD-Link II SER/DESshows how to optimally interface them to the SER/DES and discusses distance gains that may berealized with their signal enhancing functions.
