TI introduces scalable family of integrated codecs and DACs for enhanced audio features in eBooks
Texas Instruments introduced audio codecs and digital-to-analog converters (DACs) for eBooks, mobile Internet devices and portable navigation devices. The highly integrated codecs (TLV320AIC3100, TLV320AIC3110, TLV320AIC3111, TLV320AIC3120) and DACs (TLV320DAC3101, TLV320DAC3100, TLV320DAC3120) reduce component count and system cost compared to discrete implementations and support enhanced audio features to improve the consumer’s listening ...
TI Introduces Two High Performance HDMI Switches
Texas Instruments today introduced two new video switches for digital video interface (DVI) or high definition multimedia interface (HDMI). The new devices connect either two or three digital video signals coming from devices such as game consoles, digital video switch boxes, set-top boxes or DVD players to a single HDTV display.
Fixed Gain Class-D Audio Power Amplifier Saves Space in Portable Applications
Texas Instruments has introduced a family of fixed gain Class-D audio power amplifiers for portable applications that require higher performance within limited board space, such as cell phones, portable media players, handheld gaming devices and portable mini-speakers. The new TPA203xD1 amplifiers complement TI's popular TPA2010D1 variable gain Class-D amplifier.
TI’s integrated three-phase brushless motor pre-driver reduces board space up to 60 percent while driving up to 60-A FETs
Texas Instruments Incorporated has introduced the first in a new line of integrated three-phase brushless motor pre-drivers. The DRV8301 is the most highly integrated pre-driver available today, reducing board space as much as 60 percent compared to the next closest integrated solution. It can drive sub-10-A to 60-A external FETs, providing current scalability, improved thermal performance and greater efficiency in brushless DC and permanent magn...
USB high-accuracy digital signal conditioning amplifier for strain gauge devices
The DSCUSB, a compact, high performance, strain gauge digital signal conditioner with USB connectivity aimed at many applications, providing high-accuracy measurement repeatability, is now available from Celsum Technologies. A rugged metal enclosure makes the device suitable for many environments. Simply by plugging the device into a PC, data can be read in engineering units from most strain gauge bridge sensors such as load cells, accelerometers...
Fairchild Semiconductor’s USB Technology Differentiates Mobile Designs
USB has become the universal interface for mobile applications. The USB port has evolved from a pure data portal to a means for file transfers, battery-charging, music listening and factory programming. To better support the industry’s convergence into one connector, Fairchild’s new USB transceiver and USB accessory detection switch bring functional enhancements without adding design complexity or increasing space and power in mobile desig...
