Reducing Noise Issues In Microcontroller Systems: Part 1


In my ideal digital world, of which I often dream, signal voltage margins are always positive, signal timing margins are always positive, power supply voltages are always within the operating voltage range, and our environment is completely benign. Unfortunately, none of us live in this ideal world, no matter how much I would like to. The real world is dirty and noisy, and the power distribu... » read more

The I3C Interface Can Help Improve Performance In Sensor Applications


The I3C interface (officially the “MIPI Alliance Improved Inter Integrated Circuit”) was initially developed by the MIPI Alliance to support sensor interconnect in mobile applications. The MIPI Alliance is a global alliance of electronics companies that develop technical specifications for mobile applications, of which Renesas Electronics is a member. The original concept behind the I3C ... » read more
