A common application of TSB43AA82 (iSphynxII) is a 1394-enabled storage device. While there are solutions on the market targeted specifically at mainstream 1394 hard disk drives iSphynxII is different in that it provides the system designer additional flexibility. This makes it ideal for non-standard storage solutions such as MP3 players.This document shows a simple iSphynxII-based storage sol

Components in the bq3060 reference design are explained in this application report. Design analysis and suggested tradeoffs are provided where appropriate.

This application note discusses the design of isolated converters using simple switchers.

Factors That Determine Light Load PSM Switching Frequency for TPS6102x Boost Converters

Although current-feedback amplifiers (CFAs) have been in use for quite some time there is a reluctance to view them in the same light as voltage-feedback amplifiers (VFAs). For instance the gain-bandwidth curve of VFAs has a parallel in a transimpedance-bandwidth curve for CFAs. This parameter can be used to determine the closed-loop behavior of the CFA in same way that GBW can for the VFA. Not

The signal-to-noise ratio and bandwidth of the combination of the ACF2101 dual switched integrator and a low-level input current is exceptional when compared to the performance of a classical transimpedance amplifier. To further improve the ACF2101 signal-to-noise ratio a resistor can be added in series with the input sensor.

TPDxxx Preventing ESD Arcing in a Connector

With XDM1.0 the decoder does not have separate reference and display buffers. The reference buffers of the decoder are used for display as well. This helps in reducing the overall DDR utilization and DDR b/w.However this new arrangement changes the overall buffer management of the application. Now the application needs to manage the display and reference buffers using the new XDM 1.0 APIs. Thi

In today?s competitive computing and networking industry any equipment downtime due to component interconnects or bus failures impedes communication hinders productivity and hampers financial growth. In recognizing this increasingly costly unplanned downtime the industry introduced live-insertion technology to minimize the impact of any such failures. The live-insertion feature enables a networ

This document describes the GSM half-rate voice coding implementation on the TMS320C62xx processor (also called the vocoder). It discusses the system requirements and gives two levels of detail for the subroutines. The first level is designed for programmers who want to use the code in a basic GSM architecture. The second level is for programmers who want to see how the code is implemented for mod

This software demonstration combines real-time D1 Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) encoding and decoding of images on the DM642 Evaluation Module (EVM) with networking functionality.

The JPEG standard pertains to compression of still images. Performing JPEG compression at the rate of 30 frames per second in isolation as individual images is known as motion JPEG (MJPEG). This demonstrat

This application report describes two methods for implementing a digital sine-wave generator using the TMS320C2xx: the use of a direct look-up table with linear interpolation, and the use of mathemati

The ADS7843 is a 12-bit sampling analog-to-digital converter (ADC) used to drive 4-wire touch-screens to serial interfaces by ratiometrically converting two differential input signals. The ADS7843 also produces an accurate output with the first conversion cycle once powered up.

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
