Switched-mode techniques are used more and more nowadays for the design of power supplies. Switch mode power supplies have considerably higher efficiency when compared to designs employing linear regulators and can be used for higher output powers. The rectified input voltage in a switching regulator is chopped by means of a switch. The LC network after the switch smoothes this voltage resulting
This application report presents an overview of the differences among the bq24103, bq24113, bq24123 and bq24133. It assists design engineers in selecting the most suitable charger for their applicatio
The right high speed differential amplifier will add flexibility to signal chains that include a high speedanalog-to-digital converter (ADC). A differential amplifier can provide signal conditioning such as singleended to differential conversion impedance transformation and gain or attenuation.
The MSP430 is an ideal microcontroller solution for low-cost low-power precision sensor applications because it consumes very little power. The ADS1293 is a fully integrated signal chain for portable low-power medical electrocardiogram (ECG) sports and fitness applications. This library provides functions to facilitate the interfacing of any MSP430 device to the ADS1293. An
In image processing and SONAR applications the phase relation between the input and output is veryimportant to extract the information contained within. These systems require flat-phase response in theiramplifier circuitry to minimize the measurement errors. Most of these errors can be reduced by using anexpensive wide-bandwidth amplifier.Also the high frequency effects of the op amps
This brief note highlights some of the more common pitfalls when using boost regulators. These includemaximum achievable output current and voltage short circuit behavior and basic layout issues. It isassumed that the reader is familiar with the basic operation of a boost regulator.
The modular MSOP8EVM is an evaluation module for single-channel, low-power, 8 to 16-bit serial analog-to-digital converters. This application note presents a method for interfacing this EVM to the TMS
This document describes a reference design for multifaceted reflector MR-16 LED lighting by using the TPS40211 to construct a SEPIC converter. This driver provides 700 mA to a string of three white LEDs and has the capability to operate with 12 Vac or 12 Vdc. The TPS40211 has been selected for SEPIC application because it offers many advantages – long lifetime as the discard of E-cap in the design
The TMS320C6211's caches deliver high performance without the cost of large arrays of on-chip memory. The efficiency of the TMS320C6211 caches makes low cost high-density external memory such as SDRAM as effective as on-chip memory.
