This article presents the 2nd part of the switching regulator topologies, which will cover the buck/boost discontinuous and continuous mode. It will also describe the synchronous and asynchronous ...

Asynchronous vs. synchronous topologies. How a synchronous boost LED controller minimizes efficiency losses. The challenge of low-input-voltage operation. High-power LEDs continue to proliferate in ...

Synchronous interfaces involve a single clock domain and are relatively easy to design. However, at times, it is advantageous and necessary to have an asynchronous interface between peripherals for ...

The 74HC(T)4520 is a dual 4-bit synchronous binary counter featuring standard output capability and MSI ICC category. This device is suitable for applications such as multistage synchronous counting, ...

Reset is one of the most important signals in a design and yet perhaps one of the least respected. What can go wrong and how to correct it. Resets are a necessary part of all synchronous designs ...
