This article presents the 2nd part of the switching regulator topologies, which will cover the buck/boost discontinuous and continuous mode. It will also describe the synchronous and asynchronous ...

Asynchronous vs. synchronous topologies. How a synchronous boost LED controller minimizes efficiency losses. The challenge of low-input-voltage operation. High-power LEDs continue to proliferate in ...

Lack of coordination between asynchronous resets and synchronous logic clocks leads to intermittent failures on power up. In this series of articles, we discuss the requirements and challenges of ...

Synchronous interfaces involve a single clock domain and are relatively easy to design. However, at times, it is advantageous and necessary to have an asynchronous interface between peripherals for ...

The 74HC(T)4520 is a dual 4-bit synchronous binary counter featuring standard output capability and MSI ICC category. This device is suitable for applications such as multistage synchronous counting, ...
