In embedded systems, SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) and I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) protocols are both used for communication between microcontrollers and other integrated circuits. Which of ...

Considering that the Serial Peripheral Interface bus semi-standard has been around since the early 1980s, it’s perhaps not that shocking that the controllers of the Super Nintendo ...

The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) interface was initially standardized by Motorola in 1979 for short-distance communication in embedded systems. In its most common four-wire configuration, ...

The 23LCV1024 is a 1 Mbit Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) serial SRAM with battery backup and SDI interface. The memory of the device is accessed via a simple SPI compatible serial bus. The bus ...

When looking at protocol information on a bus, an oscilloscope may not be the first instrument to come to mind�until now. As most engineers know, digital oscilloscopes are an indispensable ...

Local Interconnect Network (LIN) automotive bus systems are mainly placed in the body domain and we experience a constantly increasing number of nodes in the car. This article introduces the concept ...

Check out LIN and I2C for low speed networking needs. They are often better alternatives than SPI or CAN for many applications. The serial peripheral interface (SPI) and universal asynchronous ...

Serial flash devices that support JESD252 can overcome challenges associated with smaller, lower-cost packages that don’t have a dedicated reset pin. Stability is an important consideration in ...
