Companding (compression and expansion) is a method commonly used in telephony applications to increase dynamic range while keeping the number of bits used for quantization constant. The compression is lossy but provides lower quantization error at small amplitude values than at larger values.Mu-law is a companding standard commonly used in the United States. It takes 14-bit data values and co

This application report describes the process of migrating an existing Code Composer v4.12 project to a Code Composer Studio? Integrated Development Environment (IDE) v2 project.

Many telecom and networking applications require that cards be inserted and extracted from a live backplane without interrupting data or damaging components. To achieve this interface terminals of the card must be electrically isolated from the bus system during insertion or extraction from the backplane. To facilitate this Texas Instruments provides bus-interface and logic devices with features

Integrated data acquisition systems can provide many benefits over discrete component designs. Superior performance power and cost savings along with shorter development times are among these benefits. Features such as integrated programmable gain amplifiers and averaging can provide added resolution. This application note includes information on how to achieve 17 bits of effective resolution

This article provides a well-reinforced procedure for the PCB layout task as it pertains to the TPA300x series of class D amplifiers. This information can also be used in the layout of the TPA200x ser

Designers are giving more attention to the electromagnetic compatibility of electronic circuits and systems. The electromagnetic properties of particular interest are the generation of the lowest or zero interference and the immunity of circuits to the effects of the electromagnetic energy it is subjected to. This document explains important criteria that determine the electromagnetic compatibilit

Compact disc (CD) media is used for storage of audio files because of its relatively inexpensive cost and its large capacity. Today people want to be able to play popular compressed audio files (MP3 WMA AAC etc.) with the same player that can play legacy audio CDs. In order to have skip-free playback these players need to provide protection from external shocks especially in the case of port

This application bulletin provides additional information on how the DDC112's continuous and non-continuous modes work and how to effectively operate the part in either mode. It is intended to supplem

This document serves as a guide to begin developing designs with the High End Timer (HET) advanced intelligent timer module. This timer module provides sophisticated timing functions for real-time applications. The following pages will cover a step-by-step process to program the HET. Starting with the setup for the IAR tools descriptions of the code for the main program necessary to load the HET

Excessive power dissipation can occur in switch-mode power supplies during startup and overload conditions. Many sophisticated PWM controllers provide the means for protection against these problems; however simple low-cost controllers require additional circuitry. This design note describes a circuit that uses only one additional resistor and transistor to enhance the performance of the UC3842A

Once an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and a driver/interface have been selected for a given application, the next step to achieving excellent performance is laying out the printed circuit board (P

This application report describes the number of CPU cycles required to perform a given host port interface (HPI) data transfer based on a variety of permutations of burst length CPU speed EMIF speed etc.

The HPI provides direct connectivity between a host processor and a CPU?s memory space via a 32/16-bit parallel port. The HPI throughput between a host processor and the TMS320C64x™ DSP
