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 ...

In his most recent column, “A SPIFI new idea,” Jack Gannsle expresses his pleasure in the capabilities of a new flash memory interface from ST Microelectronics, which uses a Serial Peripheral ...

In embedded systems, SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) and I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) protocols are both used for communication between microcontrollers and other integrated circuits. Which of ...

The MAX3420E contains the digital logic and analog circuitry necessary to implement a full-speed USB peripheral compliant to USB specification rev 2.0. A built-in full-speed transceiver features ±15kV ...

In the last video I demonstrated a Universal Active Filter that I could adjust with a dual-gang potentiometer, here I replace the potentiometer with a processor controlled solid-state potentiometer.

Local Interconnect Network (LIN) automotive bus systems are mainly placed in the body domain and we experience a constantly increasing number of nodes in the car. This article introduces the concept ...

When looking at protocol information on a bus, an oscilloscope may not be the first instrument to come to mind�until now. As most engineers know, digital oscilloscopes are an indispensable ...

The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) interface was initially standardized by Motorola in 1979 for short-distance communication in embedded systems. In its most common four-wire configuration, ...

Octal flash memory, or octal data transfer interface, utilizes eight data lines for input and output operations, resulting in significantly higher data transfer rates compared to serial, dual, and ...

Infineon is shipping rad hard, SPI FRAM for extreme environments. The new devices are more energy efficient than non-volatile EEPROM and serial NOR Flash devices for space applications. The addition ...
