Buses, buses, they always get you tangled up. In this world, signals may be the same, but there are thousands of buses, which can be quite a headache. In general, there are three types of buses: internal buses, system buses, and external buses. Internal buses are used for interconnections between peripheral chips and processors within … Read more
Friends involved in hardware design should be familiar with the SPI interface and the GPIO ports of MCUs, and many have personally designed SPI interfaces. When designing, did you consider this important parameter? — The driving capability of the SPI interface and ordinary GPIO ports. Today, let’s discuss how to evaluate the driving capability of … Read more

In the SMT (Surface Mount Technology) production line, the birth of each circuit board is a game of precision and efficiency. From solder paste printing to component placement, and then to soldering and curing, even the slightest flaw in any link can trigger a “butterfly effect”—leading to unstable product performance at best, or mass rework … Read more
Unveiling I2C Pull-Up Resistor Value Techniques: 5 Key Design Points and Practical Cases Introduction: Why Must I2C Be Equipped with Pull-Up Resistors? In the communication between the main control chip and other modules (such as cameras, sensors, etc.) in embedded systems, the I2C bus is widely used due to its simplicity, reliability, and low cost. … Read more

With the increasing popularity of high-speed Digital Signal Processors (DSPs) and their peripherals, electronic system designers are facing increasingly severe issues related to electromagnetic interference (EMI). In earlier studies, such issues were often referred to as electromagnetic interference (EMI) or radio frequency interference (RFI), while modern engineering more accurately adopts the concept of “electromagnetic compatibility … Read more

The DSP (Digital Signal Processing) functionality in FPGAs can be used for AI acceleration, with its core advantages being hardware-level parallel computing capabilities and low latency characteristics, but it requires algorithm optimization and hardware architecture upgrades. FPGA Technology The global FPGA market was valued at $6.2 billion in 2021 and is expected to grow at … Read more
Image and text adapted from: u-audioWritten by: Lin Zhi-Yu, Images by: Cai Cheng-RongUpon seeing a two-piece streaming player, one might instinctively think it should be a power-separated design, right? I initially thought so too, but after actually getting my hands on the DSP-05EX, I realized it’s not that simple. It’s not a power-separated design but … Read more
