| Sound advice on Class D audio amps designs
|
2007-06-01 |
| Audio designers need to pay attention to many details when they are building high-performance Class D audio amplifiers, including the choice of output transistor size, output stage protection, modulation technique and filter topology. EMI reduction and system cost must also be considered along with the desired sound quality. |

|
| Video output enhances mobile viewing
|
2007-02-16 |
| The convergence of technology in cellphones and other ultra-portable devices has rapidly increased the use of video in applications requiring extremely small size and low power. A new, emerging feature is the ability to drive a video signal from a cellphone to view that image on a conventional TV set. |
|
| Advancing RFID reader apps with convergent processors
|
2007-01-01 |
| RFID apps no longer require both a dedicated signal processor for ADC/DAC interfacing and a microcontroller for networking. A convergent processor from the Blackfin family can handle the networking and control with plenty of performance to spare for converter interfacing and pattern matching algorithms |
|
| Improve ADCs for high-speed apps with noise
|
2006-11-01 |
| All ADCs have a certain amount of input-referred noise. In most cases, less input noise is better. There are some cases, however, where input noise can actually be helpful in achieving higher resolution. |
