Digital ICs Technical Articles

Signal degradation is unavoidable, but various ICs, such as the DS250DF210, can help to restore what has been lost (or eliminate what has been added)....

In this article, we discuss metastability, setup time, and hold time in designing a digital VLSI circuit.

The FPGA can be a great addition to your arsenal, but it requires some adjustments to the way a microcontroller jockey thinks.

The CDCE813-Q1 is a customizable, fairly high-frequency clock generator that is qualified for automotive applications.

This technical brief discusses the use of spread spectrum modulation in digital circuits, particularly clock signals.

This technical brief discusses characteristics and advantages of low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS).

This article introduces the RS-422 and RS-485 interfaces and explains why you might want to use them in your designs.

Learn about the important characteristics, benefits, and applications of differential signaling, as well as the proper layout techniques for differential signals....

Here we convert the given T flip-flop into SR-, JK- and D-types, and we also verify the process of conversion.

This article presents the conversions of D-type flip-flops into SR-, JK- and T-types. It also explains how to verify the conversion process....

This technical brief presents a simple MOSFET configuration that can be used as a voltage-controlled switch.

This article teaches you how to convert a given JK flip-flop circuit to other types of flip-flops while verifying the process of conversion....

This article will teach you how to verify flip-flop conversions for SR-to-JK flip-flops. It will also guide you through the conversion and verification processes for SR-to-D and SR-to-T...

In this article, we will discuss several design examples of FIR filters using the window method. The simulated frequency response of the designed filters will be compared with the target...

This article describes the steps necessary to convert a given flip-flop into a desired flip-flop using the example of an SR-to-JK flip-flop conversion....

ADCs (analog-to-digital converters) can be described as either Nyquist-rate or oversampled converters. The Delta-Sigma ADC belongs to the oversampled family of converters. It relies upon...

All you need to know about LED arrays. If you want to learn about them, drive one using an Arduino, or build them, this is the place to start....

Learn how to use filter specs to help choose the best window parameters for your FIR filter design.

An important application of the diode is one that takes place in the design of the rectifier circuit. Simply put, this circuit converts alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). This is...
