In this training video, Texas Instruments' Xavier Ramus demonstrates how to measure the ADC PSR (Power Supply Rejection).
eCall reference design improves power management & audio
This design is for vehicles equipped with eCall systems which has the capability to enable phone calls to emergency service centres in the event of an accident.
Engineer It: How to measure LDO noise & PSRR
In this training video, TI's Kyle Van Renterghem demonstrates how to measure LDO noise and PSRR (Power Supply Rejection Ratio).
The industry's first differential inductive switch
Featuring a dual-coil architecture that automatically compensates for variations in temperature and component ageing, Texas Instruments has introduced what it claims to be the industry's first differential inductive switch. The LDC0851 detects the presence or absence of conductive material by using a simple coil drawn on a PCB.
TI adds two colours to the TI-84 Plus CE line-up
Texas Instruments has unveiled two colours that will join the colourful collection of TI-84 Plus Color Edition (CE) graphing calculators, just in time for the back-to-school shopping season. The limited-edition, metallic gold TI-84 Plus CE, 'Golden Ratio', and sleek white, 'Bright White', will be available in retail stores this summer.

Use the DLP7000UV compatible with UV light down to 363nm to digitally expose photosensitive materials.
Achieve twice the power density & half the power loss
Texas Instruments announced engineering samples of its 600V GaN 70mΩ FET power-stage, making TI the first and only semiconductor manufacturer to publicly offer a high-voltage driver-integrated GaN solution. Coupled with TI's analogue and digital power-conversion controllers, the 12A LMG3410 power stage enables designers to create smaller, more efficient and higher-performing designs compared to silicon FET-based solutions.
Chokeless high-speed CAN transceivers feature EMC performance
Texas Instruments has introduced two families of CAN transceivers that meet all industry requirements for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) from U.S. and European automotive manufacturers. Delivering high bus-fault protection, fast CAN flexible data rate (FD) speeds and the industry’s shortest loop delay, the TCAN1042 and TCAN1051 CAN transceiver families provide the industry’s best combination of protection and high performance for...
World’s first MCU with a configurable low-leakage TIA
Extending battery life in sensing and measurement applications, Texas Instruments has introduced what is claimed to be the industry’s only MCU with an integrated low-leakage TIA (TransImpedance Amplifier) consuming just 50pA. The MSP430FR2311 MCU offers 20 times lower leakage than alternative voltage and current sensing solutions and provides the configurability of analogue and memory technology without sacrificing battery life or boar...
Buck converter reduces system noise & saves space
Texas Instruments has announced a 2.2MHz, dual-channel synchronous buck converter which reduces EMI and high-frequency noise in high-voltage DC/DC step-down applications such as automotive infotainment and high-end cluster power-supply systems. The LM5140-Q1 includes dual outputs with phase interleaving and is offered in wettable flank packaging that enables post-solder visual inspection to speed manufacturing.
