Electronic Circuits is a unique combination of a comprehensive reference text and a practical electronics handbook in one volume.
Mike Tooley provides all the essential information required to get to grips with the fundamentals of electronics, detailing the underpinning knowledge...
Increasing performance demands in integrated circuits, together with limited energy budgets, force IC designers to find new ways of saving power. One innovative way is the presented adaptive voltage scaling scheme, which tunes the supply voltage according to the present process, voltage and temperature variations as well as aging. The voltage...
"...well-written and covers broad subjects related to the test of digital circuits. It will be useful for students and engineers involved in design and testing." (IEEE Circuits & Devices Magazine, July/August 2005)
“This is an excellent introduction to testing digital...
Over 100 delicious, easy-to-prepare recipes that will help any food lover manage and live with diabetes
Over two million Canadians have diabetes--with 10 percent living with type 1 diabetes, and the remaining type 2. With recipes reflecting Canada's diverse, multicultural population, this unique cookbook contains...
In iOS 7, Apple gave the iPhone the most radical makeover in its history. The new software is powerful, sleek, and a perfect companion to the iPhone 5s and 5c—but it’s wildly different. Fortunately, David Pogue is back with an expanded edition of his witty, full-color guide: the...
The "M·CORE" family of microprocessors is the latest 32-bit integrated circuit from Motorola designed to be a multi-purpose "micro-controller." The processor architecture has been designed for high performance and cost-sensitive embedded control applications with particular emphasis on reduced power consumption....
The application framework of the presented research work is stablished in the area
of the low-power portable stand-alone devices. Considering as a paradigm application
the implementation of future portable terminals for telecommunications, two
opposed trends coexist that determine the need for an optimized energy management.
An...

Electronic System Level (ESL) design has mainstreamed - it is now an established approach at most of the world's leading system-on-chip (SoC) design companies and is being used increasingly in...
There are continuous efforts focussed on improving road traffic safety worldwide. Numerous vehicle safety features such as driver assistance systems have been invented. Many driver assistance features rely on radar-based sensors, but are highly-priced. Realization of low-cost radar front-end circuits would enable their implementation in less...
This book discusses the trade-offs involved in designing direct RF digitization receivers for the radio frequency and digital signal processing domains. A system-level framework is developed, quantifying the relevant impairments of the signal processing chain, through a comprehensive system-level analysis. Special focus is given...
Universal Serial Bus System Architecture provides an in-depth discussion of USB and is based on the 1.0 version of the Universal Serial Bus specification. It focuses on the USB protocol, signaling environment, and electrical specifications, along with the hardware/software interaction required to configure and access USB devices. Although this...
High definition video requires substantial compression in order to be transmitted or stored economically. Advances in video coding standards from MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 to H.264/AVC have provided ever increasing coding efficiency, at the expense of great computational complexity which can only be delivered through massively parallel...
