When a processor-controlled device must operate reliably, designers often choose to periodically reset the processor rather than rely on a watchdog configuration. In low-power systems, this periodic-reset circuit can consume a large part of the ...
EDN Phase shifters find use in a variety of circuits, but variation in amplifier and capacitance tolerances usually makes it difficult to control the exact phase shift that precise control circuitry requires. The circuit in Figure 1 can control the ...
Stefan Wagner github.com Overview The Power Analyzer is a programmable electronic constant current dummy load with two high side voltage and current sensors for an automatic analysis of power supplys, DC/DC converters, voltage regulators, ...
Alfredo Saab EDN Temperature sensors must sometimes operate at locations whose return potentials differ considerably from that of the data-acquisition system's common that is, equipotential ground. In consequence, the temperature sensor's ...
Pulse-width modulation (PWM) is the best conversion method to use for digitally-controlled variable DC voltage sources requiring high accuracy and resolution. Invented 50 years ago [1, 2], the PWM approach is widely used today in switching power ...
Mirko Pavleski Arduino.cc A simple to build, but very sensitive electromagnetic field detector. This is a simple device capable of detecting very weak electromagnetic fields (Figure 1). The relative field intensity is displayed on the LCD display ...
Jeff Magee It is emphasised that this should not be used for medical purposes. Displays your pulse rate, blood oxygen level and a moving graph of each heart beat, the photoplethysmogram (PPG). About this project This project implemented on an ...
This module is an isolated full-duplex differential line driver and receiver for TIA/EIA RS485/RS422 applications (Figure 1). The module is ideal for long transmission lines because the ground loop is broken to allow for a much larger common-mode ...
Tirdad Sadri Nejad Hackster.io With a code size of 1 KB on an ATtiny13A MCU, this tiny module measures voltages up to 22 volts and current up to 5 amps. There are a lot of so-called USB doctor modules which are used for monitoring currents flowing ...
Inexpensive, 16-bit, monolithic DACs can serve almost all applications. However, some applications require unconventional approaches. This Design Idea design concerns circuitry I recently designed for a tunable-diode laser spectrometer for a ...
