This application note will explain the basics of humidity sensing and some important design considerations. The application note begins with a brief description of humidity and how it is quantified. Next some design guides to implement good system measurement are presented. Finally different designs with HDC1000 are reviewed.
The simplest way to supply an electronic system with a continuous and stable voltage is to use a linear voltage regulator. This application brief provides recommendations to prevent additional voltage
Capacitive proximity sensing can be implemented in a wide variety of applications with the use of TI's FDC1004 and with the flexibility of the sensor design in many system environments. Not only are there advantages of using capacitive proximity sensing compared to alternative detection methods there are also guidelines to follow to ensure maximum performance and stability with the sensing system
The MSP430 is typically used in applications such as metering, intelligent sensing, control systems and portable instrumentation. In some systems, the microcontroller may need to interface to an exter
Every real-time embedded system needs to be able to interact to events associated with the external world in a timely manner; for this typically every digital signal processor (DSP) device features one or more dedicated pins which are used for carrying these external signals called interrupts inside the device for further processing by the application. The TMS320C672x generation of processors
This document describes the Tconf language coding standards. This standard describes general lexical conventions. The benefits of these coding standards include preventing namespace collisions simplifying the use of modules and improving productivity. Third-party software vendors are encouraged to follow these coding standards. These coding standards are suggested but not mandatory for third p
The GC1115 crest factor reduction (CFR) processor reduces the peak-to-average ratio (PAR) of 3G wireless signals. This application report describes how GC1115 users canconfigure the device to achieve the desired peak reduction for 3G applications. In this application report the term 3G refers both to the UMTS (3GPP) standard and to thecdma2000 (3GPP2) standards. Examples are provided for both
This application report discusses how the performance of high-speed pipeline ADCs can be optimized by designing the right clock circuitry, a good analog input network, as well as how to get the data
This reference design is intended for users designing with the TMS320C6742 TMS320C6746 TMS320C6748 OMAP-L138 or AM18x processor. Using sequenced power supplies this reference design describes a system having a 12-V input voltage and a high-efficiency dc/dc converter with ntegrated FETs and dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) for a small simple design.Sequenced power supply archit
Digital signal processors (DSPs) typically have one or more on-chip timers that generate hardware interrupts at periodic intervals. DSP/BIOS™ normally uses one of the available on-chip timers as a source for its system clock. The on-chip timer can also be used to generate periodic hardware interrupts from the user application. DSP/BIOS also has a PRD module that allows the user to trigger pe
