Hardware add on provides mixed format multiply
06/22/95 EDN-Design Ideas Fixed-point-DSP users are aware of overflow problems that frequently occur in current algorithms such as digital filtering. Many solutions to problems such as floating point or block floating point exist; these methods, however, are cumbersome and slow to execute on fixed-point machines. An alternative is to adopt a mixed-number format consisting of an integer and a fractional part. This technique is particularly attractive for fixed-point processors with wide data words expressed in bits. An example is the 24-bit DSP56001 from Motorola. Fig 1 shows a possible fit and the covered range for such a format. Design by Patrice Nus and Vladimir Bochev, Universitœ Henri Poincare de Nancy, Saint Die, France

HDL basic training: Top down chip Design using Verilog & VHDL
10/24/96 EDN-Design Feature Increasingly complex ASIC and FPGA chips require you to shift from schematic-based design to design based on Verilog or VHDL. Understanding the basics of these languages and how you use them for designing AS ICs and FPGAs will help you go with the HDL flow Design by —Douglas J Smith, VeriBest
Headphone driving for soundcards
Computer soundcards typically have line level and speaker level outputs. Neither of those is usually nott very suitable for driving headphones: If you connect the headphones to the line level output you will usally loose tha bass frequencies because of small coupling capacitors. Line output circuitry might be overloaded because of too low input impedance and this can cause distortion __ Designed by Tomi Engdahl

High Efficiency 12V White LED Driver
DC powered LED lighting circuits can vary from trivial single LEDs with series resistors and LEDs with simple analog current regulators to more complicated switching power supply circuits such as this project. There is a tradeoff between simplicity and circuit capabilities. This more complex circuit adds features such as regulated light level across a wide range of input voltages and automatic circuit shutoff on low input voltage. __ Designed by G. Forrest Cook

Both applications require high output curr Design by Ryan Metivier, Analog Devices, Wilmington, MA
High-side current Monitor operates at High-Voltage
07/22/04 EDN-Design Ideas The simplest technique for measuring current in an actuator or a motor is to monitor the ground current with a resistive element between the load and the ground. Because the device and its associated electronics share a ground potential, you need to amplify only the ground-current signal. This approach, however, does not detect device short circuits to ground, which can overload the high-side d Design by Greg Sutterlin and Brian Whitaker, Maxim Integrated Products, Sunnyvale, CA
High-speed DRAMs keep pace with High-speed systems
02/03/97 EDN-Design Feature To get high performance from high-speed systems, you need high-performance memories. Carefully analyze the EDO, SDRAM, and RDRAM system-timing parameters to see which memory type delivers the performance that your system needs. Design by Craig Hampel, Rambus Inc
Hints & kinks for USB Decoding
02/07/02 EDN-Design Ideas The USB is a serial data-transmission system that uses cables to connect peripheral equipment to PCs. All new computers have two orUSB receptacles, and the predictions are that they will replace most of the legacy receptacles on older PCs.

PIC 18F4550 and 18F2550 are powerful microcontrollers including a full-speed USB V2.0 compliant interface. With these MCU it's very easy for the hobbyist to design USB devices with very few components. In these pages, I'm describing how to use the CDC firmware from Microchip. It permits to emulate a serial port with a PC running Windows or Linux. It's also very easy to build HID devices. __ Designed by Radio LocMan
