In many of today’s high-frequency systems, key specifications are achieved with precise optimizations in the device itself as well as all its peripheral blocks. A thorough understanding and well-designed system with all these components in mind is necessary to attain the best results. This is especially true in applications with RF sampling Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADC), where the sampling clock may use high performance synthesizers to generate very noise high-frequency clock signals. These synthesizers require careful design for the best integrated noise which directly impacts the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) performance of the ADC. This application report helps understand these performance specifications, show how to approach the optimization process, and provides relevant information to help reach the highest performance levels.

This document discusses some of the available tools for debugging audio issues. These tools span from TI-speci

The TPS6598x Utilities Tool is used to interact with the TPS6598x USB Type-C™ and Power Delivery (PD) controller using the host interface of the device and an external Microsoft Windows® based computer. This document provides instructions for installing and executing a set of Python-generated scripts. The interface provides the user a rich variety of functions for both controlling the TPS6598x device and acquiring device information.

This application note presents the operation principles for PWM LED driver control interface on DLP® Pico ASICs along with the driver performance assessment on DLP® projection display. Section 4 of the application note introduces LM3434 as the discrete LED driver on Pico products and includes the schematic, O-scope performance measurement, and design guidelines for mainstream LED products.

The application notes apply to DLPC6401 and DLPC2607 as long as the PWM driver controls the interface. The same LM3434 schematic can be adopted with the appropriate changes per LED Vf and If driving specification.
