New logic family enables noise-tolerant and lower-power system designs

Electrical noise can be a designer’s worst nightmare, leading to unexpected system behavior or even failure that is very difficult to trace. In traditional High-speed complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) logic, noise can lead to signal oscillation, resulting in higher current consumption and even producing signal errors. These errors...

Optocouplers and silicon-based galvanic isolation technology – how do they work?

Galvanic isolation is a necessary form of protection for all electronics that interface with humans or other circuits against possible high-voltage events ranging from tens of volts to kilovolts. Isolation as a form of protection requires that communication between two circuits occurs through an insulation or isolation barrier, which prevents current...

3 ways to drive multiple displays in an integrated digital cockpit with FPD-Link III

One of the ways automakers are differentiating themselves is by providing more advanced infotainment systems, with some luxury models featuring as many as 10 to 15 display panels and more complex processing and functionality. At the other end of the spectrum, entry-level models are migrating toward a minimalist digital infotainment system that gives...
