• Step-by-Step Design Guide for Digital Peak Current Mode Control: A Single-Chip Solution
  This application note investigates the implementation of peak current mode control with slope compensation using an single TMS320F28027 (Piccolo A) MCU from Texas Instruments. This MCU is ideal for peak current mode implementation due to its dedicated internal circuitry which enables a fully digital slope compensation scheme. The theory of operation, mathematical modeling and all relevant equations are presented along with a detailed step-by-step design procedure in both analog and digital domains.
  
  A design example and associated experimental results are also presented with two methods of implementation; one using TI’s ControlSUITE and one using Biricha’s Chip Support Library (CSL).
  
• Biricha CSL v4.01 Intstaller
  The Biricha CSL is a comprehensive set of API's which allows easy set up and programming of the peripherals on-board the C2000 series of microcontrollers from Texas Instruments.
  
  Please read the license agreement carefully. Although this library is not limited in functionality, you will not be able to use it for commercial purposes unless you purchased it through attending one of our workshops.
  
• CCS5 and Biricha CSL Installation and Startup Guide
  An excellent start up document aimed at getting you up & running with the CSL, C2000 & CCS5 smoothly & quickly. It includes setting up the paths, correct options to select and how to set up a new project. It is ideal for engineers new to C2000 or CCS5
