Netronome reduces SoC power use with timing tricks

... power consumption increases, it costs more to design, fabricate, operate and cool devices and systems. Clocks are the backbone of all digital chips, and a fundamentally different approach to clock construction and optimization was needed. According to Cadence, traditional clock tree synthesis (CTS) tools and methodologies are insufficient for advanced node, high-performance designs due to the growing gap...

PCB and ESR subtleties in switching regulator and LDO designs

..., even for DC/DC regulator circuits. Integrated POL devices for mobile arenas are sometimes more difficult to tackle than high-power LDOs and switchers because of their smaller form factor. Also, they use smaller components plus their system-tight-fit requirements make it tougher to layout, debug, and implement changes. Recognizing these concerns, some semiconductor vendors are producing micro power modules...

Low-voltage motor drivers suit battery-powered applications

... current; low RDS(ON) of 305 milliohms with an ultra-low sleep current as low as 10 nA to extend battery life.All devices have an on-chip 32-step micro-stepping indexer. An advanced motion control feature on the DRV8834 minimizes torque ripple for applications such as security video cameras, medical, and office automation equipment.The devices are priced at $1.15 (DRV8834) and 70 cents (DRV8835 and DRV8836) respectively (1000).Tools and supportEVMs (evaluation modules) are available for all three devices. Pricing for the DRV8834EVM is $99. The DRV8835EVM and DRV8836EVM are $49 each.Texas Instruments  ...
