A standard technique for generating analog voltages using µCs is to use a PWM output and filter the signal with a simple RC filter (Figure 1). The vol... 阅读全文
摘要:
Short-circuit protection is an obvious requirement for a power supply, especially when its load connects to a cable that's subject to damage. Many mod... 阅读全文
摘要:
The circuit inFigure 1is a good choice if you need a power supply with high efficiency and you don't want to use expensive dc/dc-converter ICs. The he... 阅读全文
摘要:
The circuit inFigure 1produces a single debounced pulse each time you press S1. Moreover, the circuit uses only logic power from the remote pull-up re... 阅读全文
摘要:
Many applications require current sources rather than voltage sources. When you need a high-current source, using a linear regulator is inadvisable, b... 阅读全文
