Low-cost, 8-bit, single-chip microcontrollers are stingy when it comes to on-chip PWM (pulse-width-modulation) resources. The use of a PWM resource often forces a designer to sacrifice a ...

This application note describes the operation of a general- purpose, microcontroller-based Serial Port Interface (SPI) boot circuit. This is a low cost solution for users who need to modify some of ...

While the average computer user likely hasn’t given much thought to the lowly serial port in decades, the same can’t be said for the hardware hacker. Cheap serial-to-USB adapters are invaluable for ...

Ok, the title is a bit misleading. Like most things in life, it really isn’t infinite. But I’m going to show you how you can use a very interesting Linux feature to turn one serial port from a ...

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 ...

virtual-serial-port.com – There has been a lot of issues on how to create serial ports. In this article we will outline the main softwares which create and control serial ports fully and easily.

Approximately 70% increase in processing performance over previous Renesas Technology product, plus comprehensive range of peripheral functions and middleware, providing a single-chip solution for ...

Digital signal processors (DSPs) earn their living by doing certain analog jobs better than analog circuitry. In some cases, where analog circuits can’t even be considered for a task due to cost or ...

The microcontroller also has a CPU, RAM, ROM, parallel and serial interfaces, timers, and interrupt dispatching circuits. Even while on-chip RAM has a lower capacity than typical microcomputer systems ...
