This document describes timing benchmarks for DSP/BIOS functions. The actual benchmark values are provided in the Results.htm file which is installed with DSP/BIOS. These benchmark values are also available on the DSP/BIOS download page ( https://www-a.ti.com/downloads/sds_support/targetcontent/bios/index.html )

If any device tests an analog designer's ingenuity it is an isolation amplifier. Its job is to pass precise analog signals - safely and without degradation - between two points that may differ by hundreds even thousands of volts. Even though the high voltage may be damaging and noisy it is often there by design and somtimes because of a fault in the system.

The task of generating a power supply for DSPs in space-constrained control applications can be a challenging task because of the need to minimize its cost and size. Therefore, this application report

The UC3871 IC is optimized for highly efficient fluorescent lamp control. An additional PWM controller is integrated on the IC for applications requiring an additional supply as in LCD displays. The switching frequency of all outputs is synchronized to the resonant frequency of the external passive network which provides Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) on the push-pull drivers. This paper describ

The UCC3809 family of BCDMOS economy low-power integrated circuits contains all the control and drive circuitry required for off-line and isolated DC-to-DC fixed-frequency current-mode switching power supplies with minimal external parts count. The UCC3956 family of Switch-Mode Lithium-Ion Battery Charger Controllers accurately controls lithium-ion battery charging with a highly efficient average

As application complexity continues to grow we have reached a limit on increasing performance by merely scaling clock speed. To meet the ever-increasing processing demand modern System-On-Chip solutions contain multiple processing cores. The dilemma is how to map applications to multicore devices. In this paper we present a programming methodology for converting applications to run on multicore

This application report discusses antenna fundamentals and the various types of antennasused for short range devices. Fundamentals are presented along with practical designprincipals.

Hydraulic actuators are characterized by their ability to impart large forces at high speeds and are used in many industrial motion systems. In applications where good dynamic performance is important

The LM6361/LM6364/LM6365 family of op amps are wide-bandwidth monolithic amplifiers which offerimproved speed and stability over many other op amps at low cost with little-to-no penalty in powersupply consumption.

This document highlights the similarities and differences between the TMS320C6205 digital signal processor (DSP) and other TMS320C6000? devices. The similarities allow tools designed for other C6000? DSPs to be used to develop software for the C6205. A listing of these tools and documents that aid in development is presented.

This application report addresses the parameters that affect the radio range. For identical radio settings, the range is highly dependent on the surroundings and environment. The link budget and the
