A common challenge facing many semiconductor companies is the push for higher data transmission speeds to drive ever higher system performance. When dealing with clock circuitry in processor and bus ...
Most of us know that a quartz clock uses a higher frequency crystal oscillator and a chain of divider circuits to generate a 1 Hz pulse train. It’s usual to have a 32.768 kHz crystal and a 15-stage ...
This accurate one-pulse-per-second clock is made with a few common parts and driven from a 50 or 60 Hertz mains supply but with no direct connection to it. A beep or metronome-like click and/or a ...
Sponsored by: Texas Instruments Clock stability is more crucial than ever in high-speed timing circuits—and low-noise oscillators and phase-locked loops play key roles in achieving that goal. Clock ...
With shrinking technologies, rapid multiplication of clock frequencies, and increasing emphasis on power reduction, low-power design is taking on a vital role. Design teams can no longer afford to ...
In digital electronics, fan-out is defined as the number of gate inputs that the output of a single logic gate can feed. It is very important in digital systems for a single logic gate to drive other ...
Some people can’t be bothered to read the analog face of a traditional clock. Some people cannot stand the low frequency “hum” of mains current. If you are in either of those categories, you probably ...
Linear Technology Corporation announces the LTC6951, a low phase noise integer-N synthesizer with an integrated VCO and an ultralow jitter clock distribution section, ideal for clocking data ...
