This reference design provides a practical example of interleaved RF-sampling analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) to achieve a 12.8-GSPS sampling rate. This is achieved by time-terleaving two RF-sampling ADCs. Interleaving requires a phase shift between the ADCs, which this reference design achieves using the Noiseless Aperture Delay Adjustment (tAD Adjust) feature of the ADC12DJ3200. This feature is also used to minimize mismatches typical of ...

TE Connectivity’s Hirschmann Mobility Antennas offering includes M2M (Machine-to-Machine) / IoT (Internet of Things) communication and telematics, commercial and off-road vehicles, infotainment, and automotive aftermarket. 

This reference design provides isolated positive and negative voltage rails for Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) gate drivers from a 24-V DC input supply. It uses a flyback power supply topology to generate four pairs of 15V and –5V outputs suitable for powering six IGBT gate drivers of 1W each. The integration of a 100V rated primary-side switch within the LM5180 flyback converter together with the elimination of an auxiliary tra...

Automotive architectures are rapidly evolving with a trend towards semi-autonomous and eventually fully-autonomous vehicles. Automotive manufacturers are also including a variety of features such as smart access, car sharing, predictive maintenance, vehicle tracking, fleet management and over-the-air (OTA) updates to enhance connectivity and in-vehicle communication. These advanced features generate an ever increasing amount of data which need to...

Honeywell's sensing element design consists of four piezo resistors on a chemically etched silicon diaphragm. A pressure change will cause a strain in the diaphragm and the buried resistors. The resistor values will change in proportion to the stress applied, which produces an electrical output. Honeywell's sensors are performing in potential applications including dialysis equipment and oxygen gas distribution.

This reference design provides a compact and scalable camera module for automotive driver assistance (ADAS) systems and other vision applications. It combines a 2-megapixel (2 MP) imager with a 4-Gbps serializer and four-channel power management integrated circuit (PMIC). The camera module is a two-board design to illustrate the flexibility and scalability of the power and serializer components to different image sensors, depending on the ap...

Man machine interaction requires an acoustic interface for providing full duplex hands-free communication. In hands-free mode, part of the far-end or near-end audio signal from the speaker is coupled to the microphones. Furthermore, in noisy environments the microphones also capture ambient noise in addition to the useful near-end audio signal. 

The LM61460 is a high performance, DC-DC synchronous step-down converter. With integrated high side and low side MOSFETs, up to 6A of output current is delivered over a wide input range of 3.0V to 36V; tolerant of 42V, easing input surge protection design. The LM61460 implements soft recovery from dropout eliminating overshoot on the output.
