Understanding Thermal Dissipation and Design of a Heatsink
Texas InstrumentsPower dissipation performance must be well understood prior to integrating devices on a printed-circuit board (PCB) to ensure that any given device is operated within its defined temperature limits. When a device is running it consumes electrical energy that is transformed into heat. Most of the heat is typically generated by switching devices like MOSFETs ICs etc. This application report discu
AN-2052 Texas Instruments SIMPLE SWITCHER Power Modules and EMI (Rev. C)
Texas InstrumentsWhile the principles discussed in this application report apply more broadly to power design we will focuson DC to DC convertor design given its broad application. It affects virtually every hardware engineer whoat some point has to design a power convertor. In this application report we will consider two commontrade-offs related to low EMI design; thermal performance and EMI and also solut

TMS320C6414T/15T/16T Power Consumption Summary (Rev. A)
Texas InstrumentsThis document discusses the power consumption of the Texas Instruments TMS320C6414T™ TMS320C6415T™ and TMS320C6416T™ digital signal processors (DSPs). Power consumption on these devices is highly application dependent so a spreadsheet is provided to model power consumption for a user's application. To get good results from the spreadsheet realistic usage parameters must be entered. The low cor

FIFO Memories: Solutions To Reduce FIFO Metastability (Rev. A)
Texas InstrumentsA metastable event occurs when the output of a logic device is neither a logic high nor a logic low level during a time period. Using a FIFO to synchronize digital signals operating at different frequencies may cause a metastable event to occur. This document assists designers in understanding and improving upon the metastable characteristics of the SN74ACT722xx family of synchronous style devices

Design Methodology for MFB Filters in ADC Interface Applications
Texas InstrumentsWhile the Multiple FeedBack (MFB) filter topology is well-known its application to very high dynamic range analog-to-digital converter (ADC) interfaces requires a careful consideration of component value selection. This application report develops the ideal transfer function then introduces a component selection methodology and discusses its impact on noise and distortion. The impact of amplifie
Feedback Amplifier Analysis Tools (Rev. A)
Texas InstrumentsThis paper gives the reader a command of the simplest set of tools required to analyze and design feedback amplifiers. These tools are fundamental and they form the basis of feedback analysis and design.
