Decoding this bit stream into ASCII hex values is an ideal job for a low-cost 8-bit microcontroller. Using a microcontroller with onboard flash memory, such as the NEC Electronics µPD78F9418A ...
When someone notices that two 8-bit DACs can be bought for less than one 16-bit DAC, a classic question is often asked: Why can’t you simply take two 8-bit DACs, assign one to the MSByte, the other to ...
If you’re nostalgic for the golden age of microprocessors and dream of building your own computer, this story might spark your imagination. [Eric Lind], passionate retro enthusiast and his 14-year-old ...
The UHT-JPEG-D core from Alma Technologies is a very high performance 8-bit Baseline and 12-bit Extended JPEG decoder, designed to enable the massive ...
When we are introduced to the internals of a microprocessor, it is most likely that we will be shown something like one of the first generation of 8-bit CPUs from the 1970s. There will be the familiar ...
This simple serial RS-232-to-discrete-output application and driver, based on Texas Instruments' 74LV8153, requires only a minimum of parts. The single-wire, RS-232 bit-compatible 74LV8153 supports an ...
