This application note describes how to implement the Bus LVDS (BLVDS) interface in the supported Altera ® device families for high-performance multipoint applications. This application note also shows the performance analysis of a multipoint application with the Cyclone III BLVDS example.
Abstract: This application note discusses the development and deployment of 3G cellular femtocell base stations. The technicalchallenges for last-mile residential connectivity and adding system capacity in dense urban environments are discussed, with 3Gfemtocell base stations as a cost-effective s ...
This application note provides users with a general understanding of the SVF and XSVF fileformats as they apply to Xilinx devices. Some familiarity with IEEE STD 1149.1 (JTAG) isassumed. For information on using Serial Vector Format (SVF) and Xilinx Serial Vector Format(XSVF) files in embedded pro ...
Consumer display applications commonly use high-speed LVDS interfaces to transfer videodata. Spread-spectrum clocking can be used to address electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)issues within these consumer devices. This application note uses Spartan®-6 FPGAs togenerate spread-spectrum ...
FPGAs have changed dramatically since Xilinx first introduced them just 15 years ago. In thepast, FPGA were primarily used for prototyping and lower volume applications; custom ASICswere used for high volume, cost sensitive designs. FPGAs had also been too expensive and tooslow for many a ...

The Maxim Integrated 71M6541-DB REV 3.0 Demo Board is a demonstration board for evaluating the 71M6541 device for single-phase electronic energy metering applications in conjunction with the Remote Sensor Inter-face. It incorporates a 71M6541 integrated circuit, a 71M6601 Remote Interface IC, periph ...
Abstract: Communication with 1-Wire slave devices requires a 1-Wire master. There are numerous ways to build a 1-Wire master (see reference design 4206, "Choosing the Right 1-Wire Master for Embedded Applications"). Thisdocument describes the DS1WM, a synthesizable 1-Wire master that can be implem ...
