The TVP5150A video decoder has an internal vertical data processor (VDP) that can be used to slice various VBI data services such as V-Chip teletext (WST NABTS) closed caption (CC) wide screen signaling (WSS) program delivery control (PDC) vertical interval time code (VITC) video program system (VPS) copy generation management system (CGMS) and electronic program guide (EPG or Gemstar). T

This document deals with solutions to control a switched reluctance motor using the TMS320C24x. This new DSP family enables cost-effective design of intelligent controllers for switched reluctance mot

As internally compensated devices the wide input step-down SWIFT™ DC/DC converters including TPS5410/5420/5430/5431/5450 have the advantages of less external part count and reduced design complexity as well as limited output capacitor selection. By adding only two or three external components into the standard circuitry these devices generally work well with aluminum/ceramic output capacitors

This document discusses the power consumption of the Texas Instruments TMS320DM6446 and TMS320DM6443 digital media System-on-Chip (DMSoC). Power consumption on the DM6446/3 devices is highly application-dependent so spreadsheets are provided to model power consumption for a user's application. To get good results from the spreadsheet realistic usage parameters must be entered. The low-core volta

MSP430 Metering Application Report

This report presents a method for comparing the ac performance of the TLV2462 and TLV2772 operational amplifiers to the ac performance of the TLV2544/TLV2548 analog-to-digital converter.

AN-666 DTMF Generation with 3.58 MHz Crystal

With the current trend towards lighter compact personal computers and engineering work stations system designers can no longer rely on after-the-fact electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding techniques; rather designers must learn to build in EMI protection of the design stage. This document discusses EMI protection for a clock distributor an application characterized by multiple simultaneo

DN034 -- YAGI 2.4 GHz PCB Antenna

This application report shows different simple methods to improve the accuracy of the 14-bit analog-to-digital converter of the MSP430 family. They all use only addition for the correction of the analog-to-digital converter characteristic. Different correction methods are explained--all without the need for multiplication--which makes them usable for real time systems like electronic electricity m

Application Note 277 The New MICRO-DAC Product Line for Microprocessor Systems

This report describes the implementation of a full-duplex 2.4-kbit/s LPC vocoder on a single TMS32010 device.

Using the TLV246x as a multiplexer lends itself to certain applications where system signals are only measured at power up, or are measured infrequently or periodically at slow sampling rates during o

Inductive-Based Switching Regulator Circuits Provide High-Efficiency White-LED Drives

The RF1A radio module consists of the CC1101-based radio core and the RF1A interface which interfaces the MSP430F5xx and the radio core within the CC430 devices. The RF1A library provides functions that implement the most common operations when using the RF1A interface such as sending command strobes reading and writing the RF configuration registers and writing to the PA Table. This applicati
