.. to use this LCD module with a dedicated 8-pin PICmicro and consider it as an intelligent display. Figure 1. A low-cost one wire driven LCD module for external pin-limited system. The following design will be useful for any external ...
.. A common problem in power distribution systems is loss of regulation due to the cable/wire voltage drop between the regulator and the load. Any increase in wire resistance, cable length or load current ...
.. Choudankar Electronic Design The 1-Wire interface is low-cost and effective, but useful only for a very short distance; by using a standard bus-buffer ...
.. the host. Figure 1. A typical LCD module. This hardware interface Design Idea (Figure 2) reduces the connection to just one wire, allowing a basic microcontroller with limited I/O to drive a large display, either directly, through a standard ...
.. Wynne EDN In applications in which you need remote measurement of temperature with a three-wire RTD (resistance-temperature detector), it is important to eliminate the ohmic errors caused by the excitation ...
.. Nguyen, Maxim Integrated EDN Unlike the four-wire SPI, QSPI, and Microwire data-interface standards, I 2 C and SBBus buses require only two wires for data ...
In most keypads, pressing a key closes a contact that bridges two lines in an xy matrix. If you use a microcontroller to detect a key closure, checking the states of (x+y) lines requires an equal number of I/O pins. Occupying only one free I/O pin, ...
.. can use a microcontroller that includes an ADC to design a two-wire-plus-ground keyboard interface. For example, you can use a resistive voltage divider to identify a pressed key ...
.. bits, and also operate in a more analog mode as shown in this Design Idea, which pinpoints the location of a break in a wire. First let’s look at the use of CMOS gates as memory devices. Figure 1 shows a one-bit transparent latch. A ...
.. DI (see the Figure 1) follows the melded concept but takes it in a somewhat different direction by using fine gauge copper wire (e.g., 40 AWG polyurethane insulated) as an integrated temperature sensor and heater. Figure 1. Miniature ...
