The MSP430x09x is the first native 0.9-V device in the portfolio of the MSP430 family. It is designed to be supplied from a single coin cell with a voltage range between 1.65 V and 0.9 V. While…
The TPS233x hot-swap controller has several pins tied to the power bus in a typical application. This exposes the TPS233x to potentially damaging transients whenever the TPS233x disconnects the…
The TPS2300/01/10/11/20/21/30/31 hotswap controllers allow safe board insertion and removal from a live backplane. With the current-limit-setting resistor (RSET), the current limit can be set…
This application note discusses the Virtex-5 FPGA power supply prerequisites in terms of the multiplevoltage rail and current level requirements output sequencing and startup characteristics.
This document supplies information for using the Expansion Bus Module (EBM) on the TMS470R1B1M to interface to external memory and peripherals. The module supports the multiplexing of the…
RS-485 is a widely used standard for industrial communication due to its simplicity and suitability for use in high-noise environments on long cables. Inherent in the standard are balanced…
Analog switches are extensively used for switching audio signals in battery-powered applications such as mobile phones. In any cases the switch is powered directly from the battery but it…
Digital signal processing algorithms are loop intensive by nature which presents a set of choices for the programmer working with the Texas Instruments (TI)(tm) TMS320C6x digital signal…
This application note describes how to extend the functionality of the standard hardware UART available on Stellaris® microcontrollers by using the 9-bit UART add-on.
The ADS8364 16-bit parallel output analog-to-digital converter has a number of features that allow for an easy interface to a variety of digital signal processors (DSP) from Texas Instruments.…
This article discusses the power consumption of the Texas Instruments AM18x. Power consumption on the AM18x devices are highly application-dependent. The low-core voltage and other power design…
This document is a specification for the ELF-based Embedded Application Binary Interface (EABI) for the MSP430 family of processors from Texas Instruments. The EABI defines the low-level…
Li-ion battery applications requiring five or more series cells can make use of standard 4-series-cell secondary protectors such as the bq2941x series. The devices can be stacked as necessary…
