Reference Guide: Serial Wire Viewer – the ability of the ARM™ core to send real-time trace information out a single wire port called the Serial Wire Output. This article examines various existing debug modules and then how Serial Wire Viewer is implemented and used in Cortex™ processors... more

White Paper: In telecommunications transport infrastructure, Optical Transport Network (OTN) and Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) protocols are being combined to create Packet-Optical Transport Networks (P-OTNs). Telecom equipment manufacturers provide these new P-OTN systems and, naturally, are now looking to the... more

Application Note: Learn how to migrate an application based on the S29GL128P Flash memory to an M29W128GH/L Flash memory. The purpose of this document is not to provide detailed information on the devices, but to highlight the similarities and differences between them. The comparison takes into consideration the... more

Data Sheet: The APDS-9800 integrates ambient light sensor (ALS), proximity sensor (PS) and ambient light cancelation functions in a single module. The module contains three chips in one small package: an ambient light sensor IC, a proximity sensor signal conditioning circuit and a proximity sensor that... more

White Paper: What if your design had to go close to the sun? Would you be comfortable? Engineers design for system-level reliability when creating complex electronic systems. System reliability is dependent on a number of factors, including the reliability of the individual semiconductor devices selected for... more

Development Board/Evaluation Kit: Reference design converts 90 VAC to 135 VAC input and drives 7 or 8 series-connected LEDs from 300 to 600 mA average current. The LM3445 switching frequency is set at 225 kHz. This 4-layer board uses the bottom and top layers for component placement. It can be modified to adjust LED forward... more
