Many moderate size Programmable Logic Device (PLD) designs, especially those in control plane applications, consist of a number of interfaces interconnected via an onchip bus to a microprocessor that may be on- or off-chip. Although each interface is often relatively simple, the task of building all the on-chip interconnections...
Battery life is getting increased scrutiny as our devices continue to shrink but are still expected to deliver more functionality and performance than ever before. Effectively extending battery life in future devices will require mastery of low quiescent current. This paper examines the role of low quiescent current in...
Trimming potentiometers or “trimmers” are mechanically adjustable resistors utilized in electronic circuits to balance out component tolerances, and to adjust the behavior of the circuit. Bourns now offers a trimmer that can be adjusted to a more precise linear output and lower Contact Resistance Variation...
This White Paper describes how the new VIA PFM, a power component that performs the front-end AC-DC conversion required in many systems, allows the application of Vicor’s Power Component Design Methodology from AC to the Point of Load (PoL). The performance of the component is described, highlighting how the VIA...
For applications requiring high power density and high power, but not requiring electrical isolation, the buck converter has been the workhorse topology for many years. Improvements in buck converters over the past few years have been limited by the power MOSFET’s sedate switching speeds.
In this paperEPC...
When it comes to Computer-on-Module (COM) solutions for embedded computing applications, selecting the right form factor and processor for the application can be a challenging task for design engineers. COM solutions provide a cost-effective computer building block: a COM is a development board featuring a computer processor,...
