Fast Compact Routine Interfaces EEPROM To µC - 03/04/99 EDN-Design Ideas /
(added 02/05) The code in Listing 1 provides the interface between any MCS-51 family
of µCs and a 24C01a/2/4/8/16 I2C EEPROM. The interface is purely software-driven, so
any µC port pins can control the EEPROM. This code is approximately two times smaller
and approximately 20% faster than similar routines published by Atmel Corp (
www.atmel.com). Careful coding of low-level routines and structural optimization
produce the performance improvements.

FIFO Provides Data Width Conversion - 09/26/02 EDN Design Ideas / (added 1/05)
Many designs require FIFO elastic buffers to form a bridge between subsystems with
different clock rates and access requirements. However, in some applications, you need
FIFO buffers for data conversion. One example is the case in which you need to connect
an 8-bit ADC to a 16-bit data-bus microprocessor through a FIFO buffer (Figure 1)....

Fourth Generation of LCD Backlight Technology - AN65 Linear Technology This
publication, LTC's fourth effort devoted to LCD backlighting in as many years, treats
subject comprehensively. The text considers lamps, display and layout induced losses,
circuitry, efficiency related issues, optimization and measurement techniques. Twelve
appended sections cover lamp types, mechanical design, electrical and photometric
measurement, layout, circuitry and related topics.
