Serial buses appear in virtually all kinds of electronic products from cars and trucks to personal audio players and mobile phones. In addition to standard low-speed protocols such as I 2 C and SPI or ...

When looking at protocol information on a bus, an oscilloscope may not be the first instrument to come to mind�until now. As most engineers know, digital oscilloscopes are an indispensable ...

You can readily meet many challenges if you employ a standardized serial data bus for your PCB designs. Such a bus occupies a smaller area on your board than would a parallel bus, it requires fewer ...

With serial-bus speeds in the gigahertz range, designers of chips and boards that communicate with and over these buses often incorporate equalizers at the bus interface. Equalizers, essentially ...

Serial buses dot the landscape of embedded design. From displays to storage to peripherals, serial interfaces make communications possible. Many serial communication interfaces compete for use in ...

Compliance requirements and measurements are an area of particular concern for serial system designers. Not long ago, first-generation serial protocols like Serial ATA and PCI Express supplanted their ...

As the CPU speed reaches 3GHz and beyond, the I/O performance of a PC has increasingly become the bottleneck of the overall system performance. Traditionally, the I/O- subsystems are connected to the ...

C, and USB Type-B ports all provide data transfers and power delivery, though the latter is much less common on modern ...

Lockheed Martin's Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter features a new 1394B serial data bus with three high-speed processors that will provide the future warfighter with a robust, triple-redundant air ...

The Yokogawa SB5000 is a new oscilloscope-based serial bus analyser focused on in-vehicle serial bus protocols including FlexRay, CAN and LIN as well as providing UART, I2C and SPI trigger and ...
