This application report describes a transmission system with Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) and Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) over noisy multipath fading channels. When an encoder and a coherent receiver based on the maximum-likelihood estimation is added we obtain the modulator-demodulator (COFDM MODEM) presented in this paper. The required performance was obtained th
Attention to layout is critical to the success of any battery management circuit board. The mixture of high-current paths with an ultralow-current microcontroller creates the potential for design issues that can be challenging to solve. This application report presents guidelines to ensure a stable and well-performing project.
This application report covers topics associated with concerns for implementing a balanced interfacecircuit utilizing the TIA/EIA-422-B (formerly RS-422-A) electrical interface standard.
The TMS320C55x™(C55x™) External Memory Interface (EMIF) supports a glueless interface to high-density and high-speed synchronous burst static random access memories (SBSRAM). For clocking SBSRAMs the EMIF can operate at numerous C55x DSP CPU clock output frequency multiples. Examples are given for system-level connection and register configuration for the different types of SBSRAM mem
The UC1871 family of ICs 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 dis
Test results at a TI LVDS Multipoint (LVDM) system show that a VME backplane with an LVDM electrical layer can support signaling rates to 200 Mbps. The performance of differential with the SN65LVDM176 transceiver is characterized using a commercially-available VME card cage. Test results show how changes in bus loading influence the electrical characteristcs of a backplane and the resulting re
As consumers become accustomed to elegant touch interfaces on a variety of devices, these capabilities are becoming more expected on a greater number of devices. The <a href=http://www.ti.com/ww/en/an
This application report explains how to extend the wide output voltage range capability of the TPS6108x by a factor of two using a discrete charge pump.
The UCC3912 IC is an integrated 3A electronic circuit breaker that includes programmable overcurrent protection and retry timing following a fault. Other common uses for this function are in higher cu
