This document provides an overview of the scan-path linker (SPL) and the scan-path selector (SPS) used to implement IEEE 1149.1 boundary-scan test. It discusses the use of remote bus controller interfaces and partitioning IEEE 1149.1 designs that use the scan-path support devices. The SN74ACT8999 is used in a SPS design and the SN74ACT8997 is used in a SPL design.
Printed Circuit Board (PCB) layout for Switched Mode Power Supplies (SMPS) is critical to achieve proper converter operation good thermal performance and excellent radiated EMI performance. Optimized board layout for low radiated EMI is made very simple by the package and pin arrangement of the SIMPLE SWITCHER ® Synchronous Buck Converter family LM4360x and LM4600x
This application report explains one method for minimizing the size of the ballast resistors between two identical dc/dc converters that are tied through these resistors tot the same load.
A block floating-point (BFP) implementation provides an innovative method of floating-point emulation on a fixed-point processor. This application report implements the BFP algorithm for the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm on a Texas Instruments (TI) TMS320C55x? DSP by taking advantage of the CPU exponent encoder. The BFP algorithm as it applies to the FFT allows signal gain adjustment in
This application report is designed to answer any questions that the user may have on the operation of the SN74AHC/AHCT123A. It also covers the most frequently asked questions and includes detailed instructions on how to calculate the external components required to make the device function correctly. Several circuits using this device also are included to show the versatility of operation
This document describes the features of the on-chip ROM for the C5505/04. Included is a description of the bootloader and how to interface with it for each of the possible boot devices as well as instructions for generating a boot-image to store on an external device.
Matrix multiplication used in areas such as graph theory, numerical algorithms, signal processing, and digital control, requires the high computational throughput provided by parallel processing. This
This application report describes two methods of interfacing a pulse train output (PTO) of clockwise and counterclockwise (CW/CCW) signals with the C2000 enhanced quadrature encoder pulse (eQEP) modul
This application report shows how to measure the critical points of a bode plot with only an audiogenerator (or simple signal generator) and an oscilloscope. The method is explained in an easy to followstep-by-step manner so that a power supply designer can start performing these measurements in a shortamount of time.
