The purpose of this application report is to enable easy migration for designs based on the USCI_A and USCI_B modules to the eUSCI_A and the eUSCI_B modules. The document highlights the new features in the eUSCI module and the main differences between the USCI and the eUSCI modules.

The host port interface (HPI) is an 8/16-bit parallel port used to interface a host processor or device to the Texas Instruments (TI)(tm) TMS320C54x digital signal processor (DSP). The HPI enables a glueless interface with host processors containing single or dual data strobes in addition to separate or multiplexed address and data buses. This application report presents a hardware interface and t

This application report describes how to communicate with the Hercules™ UART bootloader. The UART bootloader is a small piece of code that can be programmed at the beginning of Flash to act as an application loader as well as an update mechanism for applications running on a Hercules Cortex™-R4 based RM46 microcontroller.

To apply the touchscreen function of a TSC2000 TSC2200 or TSC230x device certain software programming sequences are crucial during the TSC initialization and data reading and are also helpful during the TSC mode changing. This application report presents some practical programming sequences. Additionally some program and debug tips are provided.

Many operational amplifiers are very linear — as a unity-gain inverter they often have linearity in therange of 5 to 1 to 0.5 ppm. However testing for gain linearity is not a standard or well-known test. Testprocedures will be shown here to permit any user to resolve the non-linearity errors.

Using Configurable Active Delay Elements in CDCF5801 Feedback Loop

The UC3852 provides a low-cost solution to active power-factor correction (PFC) for systems that would otherwise draw high peak current pulses from AC power lines. This circuit implements zero-current switched boost conversion producing sinusoidal input currents with a minimum of external components while keeping peak current substantially below that of fully-discontinuous converters. The contro

For many DSP applications it is desirable to boot the application from ROM. When using DSP/BIOS several issues need to be considered while preparing the application for storage in ROM. These include DSP/BIOS configuration settings placement in memory of code and data sections and use of ROM programming software utilities. This application report describes the process of implementing a DSP/BIOS

This package demonstrates how to write to the C2000 asynchronous serial port from the Texas Instruments C compiler. The program is available on the Internet. This document contains download instructions.

Impedance Track ™ technology allows bq20z80 fuel gauge ICs to automatically acquire and maintain parameters for battery modeling needed for continuous fuel-gauge accuracy regardless of battery model or manufacturer. This application report discusses how to prepare optimized default flash constants for specific battery types.
