Motor Efficiency Depends Upon Power Factor
Technical Paper
White Paper
This white paper discusses the factors that are critical in achieving overall system power savings, taking into consideration the rectifier that conditions input power from the AC mains and the variable frequency inverter drive electronics of the motor.

Bridging the Voltage Gap with FPGAs
Technical Paper
Technical Paper
Power is a demanding system design consideration today. New technology advancements, proliferating I/O standards (LVDS, LVPECL, HSTL, SSTL, etc.), legacy support requirements, and the relentless drive to design lower-power systems require most applications to use a mix of power supply and I/O drive voltages.

Fundamentals of Mixed-Signal FPGAs
Course
Technology course • 35 min.
The analog domain describes the way things typically work in the real world. By comparison, the digital domain is useful when it comes to storing and manipulating data and making complex decisions based on the results of its data-processing operations. Most people think of FPGAs as being primarily digital devices, but a certain class of mixed-signal FPGAs provide a mixture of programmable analog fabric combined with programmable digital fabric. This opens the door to a wide range of applications along with some very interesting techniques, such as using a soft microprocessor core in the digital fabric to reconfigure the programmable analog fabric on-the-fly.
