Bidirectional buses (e.g., I 2 C, SMBus, and LIN) have become ubiquitous in today’s electronics due in part to their simplicity. Using only two wires – data and clock – multiple devices can ...

The P82B96 is a bipolar IC that creates a non-latching, bidirectional, logic interface between the normal IC-bus and a range of other bus configurations. It can interface IC-bus logic signals to ...

Processors continue to get faster and faster, but the frontside bus (FSB) remains one of the biggest bottlenecks on system performance. Most major manufacturers, including Intel, Motorola and AMD, are ...

The Inter IC (I2C) bus was developed by Philips Semiconductor in the early 1980s to simplify electronic products by reducing the number of parallel data lines. Version 1.0 of the I2C-Bus specification ...

Girish Choudankar, PEng, Emphatec Inc. The low speed associated with Maxim's 1-Wire devices makes them a good choice for measuring physical parameters such as temperature in HVAC applications. They’re ...
