This project simply switches the system OFF or ON whenever the temperature rises at the desired set point. The desired setpoint can be set using a fixed resistor R6 or PR1 trimmer potentiometer. Use any of at a time R6 or PR1. You can calculate the setpoint resistor R6 using the following equation: A relay […]

ElecFreaks will launch a multi-axis unmanned helicopter series: ELF. As the name suggests, this series will be surprisingly tiny. Aimed to design a very compact, portable, able to fly in any place multi-axis helicopter, we will use smart phones app (must support Bluetooth 4.0) instead of remote control. Smaller also means more security and therefore
Interest in SBCs is growing and even though their capabilities have improved over the years, there is a yearning for more, from processing power to IOs. To add to their already impressive line of SBC offerings, EEPD (Electronic Equipment Production and Distribution) recently announced the release of two SBCs; the Profive NUCV and the Profive NUCR which are based

STMicroelectronics TCPP01-M12 USB Type-C Port Protection is a single-chip solution that facilitates the migration from USB legacy connectors type-A or type-B to USB Type-C connectors. This Type-C port protection features overvoltage protection on VBUS, adjustable up to 22 V, with external N-channel MOSFET. The TCPP01-M12 USB port protection includes an integrated charge pump to control the gate of

Farnell and Analog Devices are to co-host a webcast entitled ‘Simplifying System Designs Requiring Isolated Data and Isolated Power’ on Nov 30 4-5 pm CET. To register “Our webcast series is just one of the many ways Farnell is seeking to support customers in producing world-class designs,” said Richard Curtin, Farnell’s head of semiconductors, passives and optoelectronics products.

Since when white light emitting high brightness LED are available, the handover from traditional lighting bulbs to the solid-state lighting has become irreversible: LEDs have an efficiency (expressed in lumens/watt) higher than that of almost all the traditional lamps (except, at the moment, the large sodium vapor lamps used for street lighting, unusable in closed

iWave Systems introduces a powerful SOM (System on Module) with six heterogeneous ARM processor cores (four 64-bit ARM Cortex-A53 and two 32-bit ARM Cortex-R5 Cores), an ARM Mali-400 MP2 GPU, and a big chunk of the latest-generation UltraScale+ programmable logic cells scaling all the way to 1 million. Designed a ZU19EG / ZU17EG / ZU11EG Zynq
Tektronix brings many of the key features loved in classic curve tracers to Keithley SourceMeter source measure units (SMUs) with the release of its Keithley I-V Tracer software. Tektronix introduced the industry’s first curve tracer in 1955 to display characteristic curves for vacuum tubes. This was followed by models for testing transistors, diodes, and other solid-state

I was asked by a friend a while back to create a timer to turn a pool fill value off automatically. Apparently he would turn the fill value on and walk away only to return to water overflowing everywhere. He gave me a few parameters to follow: 10 minute timeout, easy to use, status lights,
As various antique computers age, it becomes increasingly hard to operate them as hardware begins to physically fail. Keeping these systems up and running often requires scavenging parts from other machines which are only becoming harder to find as time goes on. But if you throw out the requirement of using only era-appropriate components, there
