In his most recent column, “A SPIFI new idea,” Jack Gannsle expresses his pleasure in the capabilities of a new flash memory interface from ST Microelectronics, which uses a Serial Peripheral ...

Octal flash memory, or octal data transfer interface, utilizes eight data lines for input and output operations, resulting in significantly higher data transfer rates compared to serial, dual, and ...

In the realm of high-speed communication protocols, the XSPI (eXtensible Serial Peripheral Interface) protocol has gained prominence for its versatility and compatibility with various standards.

The basic test instrument suite — a bench power supply, a good multimeter and perhaps an oscilloscope — is extremely flexible, but not exactly “plug and play” when it comes to diagnosing problems with ...

Robust serial interfaces such as USB and IEEE-1394 ™ have revolutionized personal computing. They provide a simple-to-use interconnection to a variety of different peripherals, ranging from products ...

This morning the Open Source Hardware Association (OSHWA) announced a resolution for changing the way SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) pins are labelled on hardware and in datasheets. The protocol ...

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 ...

Solutions for asynchronous serial communication between systems or subsystems include many possible interface implementations – for example, RS-232, RS-485, RS-422, controller area network (CAN), ...

The Power Management Bus (PMBus) protocol, a simple and powerful open industry specification, is a step towards unifying communication standards for digital power-management systems and power ...
