.. 3 V, the linear driver takes over. Note that if the other half of the LM393 is not used for another LED power supply, good design practice dictates that all unused input and output pins on the LM393 be tied to ground. Figure 2 shows the ...
.. dubious) advantages compared to competing topologies. This “new” (I haven’t seen it elsewhere) idea for a design shown in Figure 1 joins the mob with the following claims to fame. It requires only a single amplifier, runs ...
.. zero output of an op-amp that is based on a symmetrical multivibrator for better efficiency than the previous photocell design idea. This second circuit is based on a symmetrical multivibrator and has far better efficiency than its ...
.. of square, triangle, and sine waveform outputs is a familiar tool on electronics lab benches. It’s also a classical design exercise. Generally, the square and triangle are easy, so the problem is how to generate an acceptably ...
.. controlled gain is an everyday analog-design element. You frequently find this element in an op-amp-based, transimpedance current-to-voltage converter. ...
.. in 5 V microcontroller-based designs. The circuit in Figure 1 serves the Tx (transmit/output) portion of the 429 spec. The design implements a high-speed ARINC-429-compliant transmit function using a single 5 V supply rail and 74HC series ...
.. rechargeable battery types can be damaged by deep discharge. This Design Idea circuit performs under-voltage protection (UVP) to prevent this, as well as acting as a load switch ...
