Get practical experience in power supply design with Biricha Digital Power's three-day workshop

If you need to design and implement multiple power supplies quickly, then this three-day, hands-on workshop is for you.

During this three-day, hands-on workshop developed by TI partner Biricha Digital Power Ltd, you will get the technical information you need to design your digital power supply quickly and efficiently.

Based on TI's TMS320C2000™ 32-bit controller family, the workshop will allow you to gain practical experience designing and coding four closed loop digital converters. You will also receive the tutorials, libraries and skills to implement multiple converters with minimal coding.

All attendees receive Biricha Digital Power Ltd's Digital Power Library, written specifically for C2000™ fixed point processors to allow quick programming of the device peripherals and make programming easy and intuitive.

Time and place
Tuesday 24th August 2010	Kista, Sweden
Cost: €1795 (excl. VAT)

Workshop Outline

Typically the morning session is dedicated to the study of the theory and principles, whilst the afternoon session focuses on laboratory exercises to consolidate the theory.

In addition, all attendees will receive a copy of Biricha Digital Power Ltd’s Digital Power Library. This library is a collection of software functions written specifically for the C2000 family of processors including Piccolo A, Piccolo B+CLA and the 28335 floating point in order to reduce the programming burden of the digital power supply designer.

These functions allow quick programming of the device peripherals (such as PWM and ADC setup) and are written in such a way so as to make programming easy and intuitive.
