Design Ideas

 

Microprocessor generates programmable clock sequences

- William Grill, Honeywell BRGA, Lenexa, KS; Edited by Brad Thompson and Fran Granville - EDN, 7/20/06
Produce custom-programmed pulse-width modulated waveforms for less than $1.

Ceramic output capacitors enhance internally compensated switchers

- Robert Kollman, Texas Instruments, Dallas, TX; Edited by Brad Thompson and Fran Granville -- EDN
Restore switching regulator stability when you change output-capacitor compositions.

FROM EDN EUROPE: Proprietary architectures defend automotive space

- By David Marsh, Contributing Technical Editor
While ARM architectures increasingly challenge for automotive and industrial dominance, they face stiff competition from proprietary devices that regard these markets as being their own. Recent devices from major vendors underline the continuing determination to compete for market shares.

Magnetic-field measurements hold the key to reducing dc/dc EMI

- By William J Bowhers, Merrimack College
Power converters free system designers from unwieldy constraints, but the devices radiate unspecified fields that can destroy the signal/noise performance of sensitive circuits nearby. Magnetic-field measurements hold the key to finding and correcting these problems.
