This circuit transforms a pulse-width-modulation (PWM) signal into non-overlapping clock signals, whose number depends on the length of a shift register. These clock signals can be used to power up ...

This hack is a bit older, but one aspect of the setup makes it worth sharing. Shift registers are a common component to include in a project when you need to increase the number of I/O pins available.

Lowering power consumption seems to be on every designer’s mind these days. And yet when asked about applying low-power design techniques, many engineers respond, “Well, we do clock gating … and ...

This post sponsored by Texas Instruments. The TLC6C598-Q1 is a monolithic, medium-voltage, low-current power 8-bit shift register designed for use in systems that require relatively moderate load ...

The push for higher performance at lower power and cost has driven the VLSI industry towards System-on-Chip (SoC) integration resulting in designs with multiple clocks. It is common to see blocks that ...
