Sequential Channel selector simplifies software: 01/04/01 EDN-Design Ideas / (added 11/05) -- An efficient but powerful circuit is useful for a variety of applications with
limited I/O and for which you want to use one input to sequentially select a different output channel ( Figure 1 ). When the software changes the state of only one input,... |

Software makes full use of 8051's interrupt system: 12/06/01 EDN Design Ideas / (added 11/05) The program in Listing 1 uses a pseudo-RETI instruction to provide a
five-priority-level interrupt system for the 8051P microcontroller. The interrupt-priority order, from high to low, is INT0 IT0 INT1 IT1 INTP. Before the pseudo-RETI instruction arrives in the
IT0 or IT1 interrupt-service routine, the address of the first instruction, which is after the pseudo-RETI instruction, goes ba... ... |

Software reset uses I²C I/O port: 05/16/02 EDN Design Ideas / (added 11/05) You can use the circuit in Figure 1 to allow the I2C or SMBus to control device resets
in a system by using the PCA9554 I2 C I/O-port IC. Normally, a reset function takes an active-low signal. On power-up of the PCA9554, the IC sets all the I/O pins as inputs. The 4.7-kΩ
pull-down resistor on each I/O ensures that all the active-low reset pins are initially in a low state during power-up.... |

Software snippet provides improved subset sum algorithm : 09/25/03 EDN-Design Ideas / (added 11/05) The subset-sum problem is one of the most frequently occurring NP
(nondeterministic, polynomial-time)-complete) problems. It asks whether a subset of numbers in a set of positive integers adds up exactly to a given value. A relaxed version of the problem
tries to identify a subset of numbers that adds up to a maximum value no greater than a given value.... |
