LM2596 based step-down DC-DC converter modules can be bought on eBay quite cheaply for around a dollar each. But how do they perform? Is it safe to use it to power your design? Let’s find ou... Read more
Features Low Ripple Burst Mode® Operation: 7μA IQ at 12VIN to 5VOUT Output Ripple (<10mV Typ.) Dual Supply Pins: Improves Efficiency Reduces Minimum Supply Voltage to ~1V after Start-Up t... Read more
DC-DC converters are widely used components that convert DC power from one voltage to another, producing a regulated output voltage. These devices are used in many electronic products, inclu... Read more
Alright! So hello everyone! Long time user, follower, commenter but first time iblest here! So for my first instructable I thought I’d share a recent simple project I made; a Buck Conv... Read more
The “MYdata TPsys CAD converter” is a small universal program which read the pick and place export data of the most pcb design softwares out there, and converts them to a machine... Read more
A digital to analogue converter takes a series of digital inputs (a string of 1s and 0s, in our case there will be 8 of them like 10011001) and converts it into an analogue output. You see D... Read more
Among the signals below 550 kHz are maritime mobile, distress, radio beacons, aircraft weather, European Longwave-AM broadcast, and point-to-point communications. The low-frequency converter... Read more
I recently needed to measure how different materials affect light transmission for a gardening project. I decided this was the perfect opportunity to try out the new logic level conver... Read more
Today I’m going to present some of more advanced capabilities of ADC built in ATSAM3X8E – the heart of Arduino Due. I like the Arduino platform. It makes using complex microcontrollers much... Read more
Although temperature is a fundamental aspect of our lives, it is difficult to measure accurately. Before the era of modern electronics, Galileo invented a rudimentary thermometer capable of... Read more
