Imagine you’re sending a piece of hardware to space on a satellite. Unless you’re buddy-buddy with NASA, it’s pretty unlikely you’ll ever be able to head up there and fix something if it goes wrong ...

To prevent data corruption when using multiple SPI devices on the same bus, care must be taken to ensure that they are only accessed from within the main loop, or from the interrupt routine, never ...

At L-3 Communications, we use PLLs (phase-locked loops) in many of our products to generate precise, stable signals. To program these parts, we must load several control registers with digital words ...

The SPI is an interface bus that is used to send data between microcontrollers, and/or other peripherals like sensors, flash and EEPROM memory, LCDs, SD Cards, Camera Lenses and many more. Being able ...

VIA's upcoming VT8237S south-bridge will implement a serial bus that will allow easy BIOS flashing for the likes of system integrators and motherboard manufacturers. Generally speaking, there are two ...

PLANO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Diodes Incorporated (DIOD) today announces the PI7C9X762Q, a high-performance automotive-compliant* I2C/SPI-bus-to-dual-channel UART bridge. The device’s low-power ...

Maxim has introduced a chip to interface devices equipped with I2C or SPI bus connections to its ‘1-wire’ bus. Called DS28E18, it is intended to knock cost out of networks that connecting I2C and SPI ...

Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) output driver chips are popular with embedded designers because they provide multiple outputs without using any CPU I/O pins. This article explains how to adapt a ...

Electronics is everywhere, especially these days. Many times, as frequent users, we do not even notice a “paradigm change” in the things we use on regular basis. We use a fridge, but we do not care ...
