In his most recent column, “A SPIFI new idea,” Jack Gannsle expresses his pleasure in the capabilities of a new flash memory interface from ST Microelectronics, which uses a Serial Peripheral ...

The basic test instrument suite — a bench power supply, a good multimeter and perhaps an oscilloscope — is extremely flexible, but not exactly “plug and play” when it comes to diagnosing problems with ...

The 23LCV1024 is a 1 Mbit Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) serial SRAM with battery backup and SDI interface. The memory of the device is accessed via a simple SPI compatible serial bus. The bus ...

The MAX3420E contains the digital logic and analog circuitry necessary to implement a full-speed USB peripheral compliant to USB specification rev 2.0. A built-in full-speed transceiver features ±15kV ...

Delivers the flexible, multiple-peripherals simplicity of I2C and the faster, lower-latency communication of SPI in a single, efficient, easier-to-use IP core Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey — September 5, ...

Infineon is shipping rad hard, SPI FRAM for extreme environments. The new devices are more energy efficient than non-volatile EEPROM and serial NOR Flash devices for space applications. The addition ...

Hack a Day’s very own (and very prolific contributor) [Mike Szczys] put up a great tutorial on how to drive shift registers with an SPI interface. [Mike]’s earlier tutorial of the 595 shift register ...

Check out LIN and I2C for low speed networking needs. They are often better alternatives than SPI or CAN for many applications. The serial peripheral interface (SPI) and universal asynchronous ...

When looking at protocol information on a bus, an oscilloscope may not be the first instrument to come to mind�until now. As most engineers know, digital oscilloscopes are an indispensable ...

Serial flash devices that support JESD252 can overcome challenges associated with smaller, lower-cost packages that don’t have a dedicated reset pin. Stability is an important consideration in ...
