The PLD (programmable-logic-device) code in Listing 1 creates arbitrary-resolution, pulse-width-modulated (PWM) generators. PWM generators are useful as low-bandwidth D/A converters in hardware of ...

The good thing about computers is they do your work for you, right? If you are a programmer, that doesn’t always seem to be a true statement. [Runtimemicro] has the answer, at least if you are writing ...

For some projects, it’s okay to have a microcontroller twiddling it’s thumbs most of the time. When a project requires the cpu to do just one thing over and over, there’s no loss with inefficient code ...

Most of us know about PWM DACs. They are easy to implement, cheap, and acceptable for low performance applications. The approach is to filter the HF components of the PWM signal and be left with only ...
