In digital systems data is continuously being exchanged between various subsystems. If the data arrives at differing speeds intermediate storage is necessary. This intermediate storage works on a first-in first-out (FIFO) basis. This document discusses the basics of FIFOs and gives and overview of their use in telecommunications applications in modems with data compression in DSP int

High accuracy measurements of low-level signals in the presence of high isolation mode voltages can be difficult due to the errors of the isolation amplifiers themselves.

The application report describes the design and function of a stereo high-fidelity tone control using a single TLC074 quad operational amplifier. A rail-to-rail operational amplifier is used to provide a midpoint supply voltage and signal ground allowing the use of a single power supply.

This application report examines the high-voltage lifetime characteristics of the isolation barrier in the ISO72x family of digital isolators. This provides the user with information regarding the lon

This application report describes the operation and performance of a 12-V to 2-V 20-A synchronous buck regulator evaluation design using the TPS5210 Programmable Synchronous Buck Regulator Controller. Experimental data shows tight static and dynamic regulation (?55 mV) fast transient response (within 1 micosecond) high efficiency (up to 90%) and stable operation with good noise immunity. The TP

Gives the recommended PCB layout for the PT3100/4100 series DC-DC converters and gives guidance on the expected thermal resistance and temperature rise Vs power dissi-pation.

This application report shows how to implement a single-chip thermocouple interface. The thermocouple interfaces with the MSP430F5529’s integrated 12-bit analog/digital converter (ADC12_A) through an operational amplifier circuit. The MSP430 encodes the thermocouple readings into a digital value converts them to temperature and stores them in memory.

TCAxxxx I2C Bus Pull-Up Resistor Calculation

Tracking dc/dc converters must track a reference voltage. However the rate of change in the reference voltage that the output voltage can successfully track is limited. This application report presents a typical application circuit and the reasons for these limitations along with the waveforms showing circuit performance when the reference voltage slew rates are increased above the maximum.

A Low-Noise Precision Op Amp

System designers require accurate component power consumption specifications for the purposes of thermal management component selection and power distribution planning.

This report compares the communication timing specifications for the different battery gas gauge and battery monitor products. It discusses some of the interface requirements necessary for robust HDQ communication such as the need for a break prior to each communication how to reliably read 16-bit dynamic values over the 8-bit bus and the need for some noise filtering on the HDQ line. It also

This document discusses how a random number can be generated on a TMS320C5x. The goal of this application note is to provide a fast proven useful random number generator that can be used in various fixed-point applications. The theory is discussed and a code example is provided.

The macromodel for the Diamond Transistor OPA660 gives an example of the structure and performance of these new Spice models.
