We’re always excited to get a new chip or SIM card to interface, but our enthusiasm is often dampened by the prototyping process. Interfacing any chip usually means breadboarding a circuit, writing ...

When looking at protocol information on a bus, an oscilloscope may not be the first instrument to come to mind�until now. As most engineers know, digital oscilloscopes are an indispensable ...

You can readily meet many challenges if you employ a standardized serial data bus for your PCB designs. Such a bus occupies a smaller area on your board than would a parallel bus, it requires fewer ...

With serial-bus speeds in the gigahertz range, designers of chips and boards that communicate with and over these buses often incorporate equalizers at the bus interface. Equalizers, essentially ...

Serial buses appear in virtually all kinds of electronic products from cars and trucks to personal audio players and mobile phones. In addition to standard low-speed protocols such as I 2 C and SPI or ...

Serial buses dot the landscape of embedded design. From displays to storage to peripherals, serial interfaces make communications possible. Many serial communication interfaces compete for use in ...

As the CPU speed reaches 3GHz and beyond, the I/O performance of a PC has increasingly become the bottleneck of the overall system performance. Traditionally, the I/O- subsystems are connected to the ...

Although the ubiquitous Mil-Std-1553 data bus is fast approaching middle age, data bus test, simulation and monitoring equipment boasts up-to-the-minute packaging and software. The new Airbus 380 ...
