High-voltage power management ICs, such as TI's LM5000 series of integrated controllers and regulators, can simplify the design of high-voltage power management solutions
This paper presents various application scenarios where high-voltage…
Improvements in AC/DC power supply design are evolutionary, rather than revolutionary. It's easy to settle for tried-and-tested approaches because no one new design technique is likely to yield great benefits.…
Type-C interfaces bring dramatic benefits to consumers. However, in order to realize this potential designers must implement Type-C's Power Delivery (PD) protocol, detect cable orientation and switch high speed signals,…
This document provides a brief introduction to OpenNSL and provides summary information about how to build OpenNSL-ready network switching platforms and network switching applications that run on top of OpenNSL.…
To guarantee the correct behavior of real-time software running on embedded processors can pose a significant challenge. Data-dependent control flow, where execution times of many functions are dependent on the…
Many original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and electronic manufacture service (EMS) providers try to manage and maintain a supply chain with minimal excess and obsolete (E/O) inventory. Whether the OEM uses…
HDMI Version 2.1 is the specification's most substantial upgrade. Video delivery speed increases 300%, and a compression feature can increase this another 300%, for up to nine times higher video…
This paper presents an investigation into the usage of modeling techniques to predict and improve the shielding effectiveness of rectangular, metallic Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) EMI cages.
These cages house bi-directional…
The size or power density of a power supply is a key criteria when selecting the optimum product for a given application. In applications where fans are not desirable due…
As part of the growing need for cybersecurity, the types of malwares and viruses that have been designed to attack SCADA systems (such as Stuxnet and Flame) will be examined.
To…
Conformance tests are performed on serial data interfaces such as USB, HDMI and PCI Express to ensure interoperability between electronic devices and accessories. In cases where signal integrity problems are…
To ensure the stability of voltage regulators and switched mode power supplies, the control loop behaviour must be measured and characterized. A well compensating voltage controller enables stable output voltages…
