Reconfigurable Coprocessor for Redundant Radix4 Arithmetic:
project implements four arithmetic and four logic operations using a fast parallel multiplication scheme. The coprocessor is hosted in an
XS40 Board that interfaces to a PC through the parallel port. (Electronic Schematic / circuit added 4/02) |

RISC µP Implements Fast FIR Filter: 01/21/99 EDN-Design Ideas / (added
11/05) When it comes to implementing a fast FIR filter, current RISC µPs can compete with DSP µPs. The FIR algorithm continuously
implements the following equation: N=n–1 Out=Sum[in(t[-]n)coeff(n)] N=0,.... |

SDRAM Interface Slashes Pin Count: 02/05/2004 EDN-Design Ideas
In low-noise analog circuits, a high-gain amplifier serves at the input to increase the SNR. The input signal level determines the
input-stage gain; low-level signals require the highest gain. It is also standard practice in low-noise analog-signal processing to make the
circuit's bandwidth as narrow as possible to pass only the useful input-signal spectrum. (added 10/05) |

Simple Circuit Provides Power Sequencing: 10/14/04 EDN
Design Ideas / (added 10/05) ASICs, FPGAs, and DSPs can require multiple supply voltages with restrictions on their start-up
sequencing. Often, I/O voltages, which usually have the highest voltage, must come up first, followed by all other voltage rails in a
high-to-low order, with the core voltage last. This scenario may also require that one supply rail not exceed another by more than a diode
drop; otherwise, excessive c... |

Simple FIFO Provides Data Width Conversion: 09/26/02
EDN Design Ideas / (added 1-/05) Many designs require FIFO elastic buffers to form a bridge between subsystems with different
clock rates and access requirements. However, in some applications, you need FIFO buffers for data conversion. One example is the case in
which you need to connect an 8-bit ADC to a 16-bit data-bus microprocessor through a FIFO buffer (Figure 1). |
