Embeded-Systems. Chap14. Jitter. Jitter can be quantified in the same terms as all time-varying signals, e.g., root mean square (RMS), or peak-to-peak displacement. Also like other time-varying signals, jitter can be expressed in terms of spectral density (frequency content). Jitter period is the interval between two times of maximum effect (or minimum effect) of a signal characteristic that varies regularly with time. Jitter frequency, the more commonly quoted figure, is its inverse. ITU-T G.810 classifies jitter frequencies below 10 Hz as wander and frequencies at or above 10 Hz as jitter.[2] Jitter may be caused by electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk with carriers of other signals.

Jitter can cause a display monitor to flicker, affect the performance of processors in personal computers, introduce clicks or other undesired effects in audio signals, and loss of transmitted data between network devices.

Avionics-Protocols. Control-Systems. EIA : Electronic Industries Alliance. Solid state relay. A solid-state relay (SSR) is an electronic switching device that switches states when an external voltage is applied along its n-type and p-type junctions. SSR has a small control signal that controls a larger load current or voltage. It consists of a sensor which responds to an appropriate input (control signal), a solid-state electronic switching device which switches power to the load circuitry, and some coupling mechanism to enable the control signal to activate this switch without mechanical parts.

The relay may be designed to switch either AC or DC to the load. It serves the same function as an electromechanical relay, but has no moving parts. Solid-state relays are composed of semiconductor materials, including thyristors and transistors. Solid-state relays have current ratings that extend from a few microamps for low-power packages up to around a hundred amps for high-power packages. Coupling[edit] Many SSRs use optical coupling. Operation[edit] Parameters[edit] Disadvantages[edit] Opto-isolator. Schematic diagram of an opto-isolator showing source of light (LED) on the left, dielectric barrier in the center, and sensor (phototransistor) on the right.

[note 1] In electronics, an opto-isolator, also called an optocoupler, photocoupler, or optical isolator, is a component that transfers electrical signals between two isolated circuits by using light.[1] Opto-isolators prevent high voltages from affecting the system receiving the signal.[2] Commercially available opto-isolators withstand input-to-output voltages up to 10 kV[3] and voltage transients with speeds up to 10 kV/μs.[4] History[edit] The value of optically coupling a solid state light emitter to a semiconductor detector for the purpose of electrical isolation was recognized in 1963 by Akmenkalns,et al.

(US patent 3,417,249). Photoresistor-based opto-isolators were introduced in 1968. Operation[edit] Electric isolation[edit] Types of opto-isolators[edit] Resistive opto-isolators[edit] Photodiode opto-isolators[edit] Current mode logic. Differential digital logic family Current mode logic (CML), or source-coupled logic (SCL), is a digital design style used both for logic gates and for board-level digital signalling of digital data . The basic principle of CML is that current from a constant current generator is steered between two alternate paths depending on whether a logic zero or logic one is being represented. Typically, the generator is connected to the two sources of a pair of differential FETs with the two paths being their two drains.

Bipolar equivalents operate in the same way, with the output being taken from the collectors of the BJT transistors. As a differential PCB-level interconnect, it is intended to transmit data at speeds between 312.5 Mbit/s and 3.125 Gbit/s across standard printed circuit boards.[1] The transmission is point-to-point, unidirectional, and is usually terminated at the destination with 50 Ω resistors to Vcc on both differential lines.

Operation[edit] Ultra low power[edit] See also[edit] Differential signaling. Elimination of noise by using differential signaling. Advantages[edit] Tolerance of ground offsets[edit] In a system with a differential receiver, desired signals add and noise is subtracted away. Suitability for use with low-voltage electronics[edit] In the electronics industry, and particularly in portable and mobile devices, there is a continuing tendency to lower the supply voltage in order to save power and reduce unwanted emitted radiation. A low supply voltage, however, causes problems with signaling because it reduces the noise immunity. To see why, consider a single-ended digital system with supply voltage .

And the low logic level is 0 V. . And the other at 0 V, is . . . Resistance to electromagnetic interference[edit] Comparison with single-ended signaling[edit] In single-ended signaling, the transmitter generates a single voltage that the receiver compares with a fixed reference voltage, both relative to a common ground connection shared by both ends. Uses[edit] See also[edit] PCI Express. PCI Express (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express), officially abbreviated as PCIe, is a high-speed serial computer expansion bus standard designed to replace the older PCI, PCI-X, and AGP bus standards. PCIe has numerous improvements over the aforementioned bus standards, including higher maximum system bus throughput, lower I/O pin count and smaller physical footprint, better performance-scaling for bus devices, a more detailed error detection and reporting mechanism (Advanced Error Reporting (AER)[1]), and native hot-plug functionality.

More recent revisions of the PCIe standard support hardware I/O virtualization. The PCIe electrical interface is also used in a variety of other standards, most notably ExpressCard, a laptop expansion card interface. Format specifications are maintained and developed by the PCI-SIG (PCI Special Interest Group), a group of more than 900 companies that also maintain the conventional PCI specifications. Architecture[edit] A full-height 4x PCIe card. Cyclic redundancy check.

A cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is an error-detecting code commonly used in digital networks and storage devices to detect accidental changes to raw data. Blocks of data entering these systems get a short check value attached, based on the remainder of a polynomial division of their contents; on retrieval the calculation is repeated, and corrective action can be taken against presumed data corruption if the check values do not match.

The CRC was invented by W. Wesley Peterson in 1961; the 32-bit CRC function of Ethernet and many other standards is the work of several researchers and was published during 1975. Introduction[edit] CRCs are based on the theory of cyclic error-correcting codes. The use of systematic cyclic codes, which encode messages by adding a fixed-length check value, for the purpose of error detection in communication networks, was first proposed by W. A CRC is called an n-bit CRC when its check value is n bits. Application[edit] CRCs and data integrity[edit] , where. Snubber Circuit Design Calculators. Snubber Circuit Design Calculators See our other Electronics Calculators.

Driving inductive loads with transistor switches, whether they be flyback transformers, relays or motors often result in the high voltage resonant spikes when the coils are interrupted from their current current source by the transistor. There are various ways of mitigating these undesirable spikes which cause component failures and EMI issues. The most common approach is to use snubber circuits. Figure 1 - Coil driving circuit showing the use of a RCD clamping snubber (D1,C1,R1) and a RCD rate of voltage rise snubber (D2,R2,C2). Method 1 - RCD Rate of Voltage Rise Snubber Circuit With this method we want to limit the rise of the voltage when the transistor switch is shut off.

Another way of stating the problem is that we want the drain or collector of the transistor to snap back to the rail voltage in dt seconds. When the transistor shuts off the current is at it's peak value. Ipk= C*dV/dt C= Ipk*dt/Vrail R= 10/(f*C)

FADEC

Instructive-Reading. Baud. Where fs is the symbol rate. There is also a chance of miscommunication which leads to ambiguity. A simple example: A baud of 1 kBd = 1,000 Bd is synonymous to a symbol rate of 1,000 symbols per second. In case of a modem, this corresponds to 1,000 tones per second, and in case of a line code, this corresponds to 1,000 pulses per second.

The symbol duration time is 1/1,000 second = 1 millisecond. In digital systems (i.e., using discrete/discontinuous values) with binary code, 1 Bd = 1 bit/s. By contrast, non-digital (or analog) systems use a continuous range of values to represent information and in these systems the exact informational size of 1 Bd varies. The baud unit is named after Émile Baudot, the inventor of the Baudot code for telegraphy, and is represented in accordance with the rules for SI units. Relationship to gross bit rate[edit] The symbol rate is related to but should not be confused with gross bit rate expressed in bit/s. In that case M=2N different symbols are used. Where. FOMIS_Datasheet_WEB.pdf (application/pdf Object) FADEC. Full authority digital engine (or electronics) control (FADEC) is a system consisting of digital computer, called an electronic engine controller (EEC) or engine control unit (ECU), and its related accessories that control all aspects of aircraft engine performance.

FADECs have been produced for both piston engines and jet engines.[1] FADEC for piston engine History[edit] The goal of any engine control system is to allow the engine to perform at maximum efficiency for a given condition. Following mechanical means of engine control came the introduction of analog electronic engine control. Following analog electronic control, the logical progression was to digital electronic control systems. Function[edit] True full authority digital engine controls have no form of manual override available, placing full authority over the operating parameters of the engine in the hands of the computer. Safety[edit] Applications[edit] Advantages[edit] Disadvantages[edit] Requirements[edit] Research[edit] JPEG. Continuously varied JPEG compression (between Q=100 and Q=1) for an abdominalCT scan. In computing, JPEG (/ˈdʒeɪpɛɡ/ JAY-peg)[1] (seen most often with the .jpg extension) is a commonly used method of lossy compression for digital images, particularly for those images produced by digital photography.

The degree of compression can be adjusted, allowing a selectable tradeoff between storage size and image quality. JPEG typically achieves 10:1 compression with little perceptible loss in image quality. [citation needed] JPEG compression is used in a number of image file formats. JPEG/Exif is the most common image format used by digital cameras and other photographic image capture devices; along with JPEG/JFIF, it is the most common format for storing and transmitting photographic images on the World Wide Web. The term "JPEG" is an acronym for the Joint Photographic Experts Group, which created the standard.

JPEG/JFIF supports a maximum image size of 65535×65535.[3] The JPEG standard[edit] Ownersmanual.pdf (application/pdf Object) Low-voltage differential signaling. Low-voltage differential signaling, or LVDS, also known as TIA/EIA-644, is a technical standard that specifies electrical characteristics of a differential, serial communication protocol. LVDS operates at low power and can run at very high speeds using inexpensive twisted-pair copper cables. Since LVDS is a physical layer specification only, many data communication standards and applications use it but then add a data link layer as defined in the OSI model on top of it. LVDS was introduced in 1994, and has become popular in products such as LCD-TVs, automotive infotainment systems, industrial cameras and machine vision, notebook and tablet computers, and communications systems.

The typical applications are high-speed video, graphics, video camera data transfers, and general purpose computer buses. Basic LVDS circuit operation showing current flowing in a loop back to the driver and the resulting lower radiated emission (lower EMI) due to field coupling within the differential pair. Universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter. A universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter, abbreviated UART /ˈjuːɑrt/, is a piece of computer hardware that translates data between parallel and serial forms.

UARTs are commonly used in conjunction with communication standards such as EIA, RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485. The universal designation indicates that the data format and transmission speeds are configurable. The electric signaling levels and methods (such as differential signaling etc.) are handled by a driver circuit external to the UART. A UART is usually an individual (or part of an) integrated circuit used for serial communications over a computer or peripheral device serial port. UARTs are now commonly included in microcontrollers. Transmitting and receiving serial data[edit] The Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) takes bytes of data and transmits the individual bits in a sequential fashion.[1] At the destination, a second UART re-assembles the bits into complete bytes.

Instructive-Reading. Mathematical-Tools. DSPRelated.com. Scientific-Tools. Manchester Data Encoding for Radio Communications. Abstract: Manchester encoding has gained wide acceptance as the modulation scheme for low-cost radio-frequency transmission of digital data. This form of binary phase-shift keying is a simple method for encoding digital serial data of arbitrary bit patterns without any long strings of continuous zeros or ones, and having the encoding clock rate embedded within the transmitted data.

Manchester encoding is a form of binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) that has gained wide acceptance as the modulation scheme for low-cost radio-frequency (RF) transmission of digital data. Manchester is a simple method for encoding digital serial data of arbitrary bit patterns without having any long strings of continuous zeros or ones, and having the encoding clock rate embedded within the transmitted data. The encoding of digital data in Manchester format defines the binary states of "1" and "0" to be transitions rather than static values.
