Analogue Sensors – Calculate the Nonlinearity Introduced by a Load or Pull Down Resistor
https://www.electronics-lab.com/analogue-sensors-calculate-nonlinearity-introduced-load-pull-resistor/
Tecwyn Twmffat @ instructables.com discuss about the notlinearity introduced by adding a pull down resistor and why you may get unpredictable readings from your ADC. For many years I found that I would get strange, unpredictable, readings from my sensor related projects at the maximum and minimum locations when using analogue digital convertors (ADCs). I […]
Buck regulator accepts 3.0-V to 42-V input
https://www.electronics-lab.com/buck-regulator-accepts-3-0-v-42-v-input/
Linear Technology Corporation announces the LT8608, a 1.5A, 42V input synchronous step-down switching regulator. A unique synchronous rectification topology delivers 93% efficiency while switching at 2MHz enabling designers to avoid critical noise-sensitive frequency bands, such as AM radio, while using a very compact solution footprint. Burst Mode® operation keeps quiescent current under 2.5μA in no-load […]

The Step-Up DC-DC Converter project provides 28V, 175mA output with input of 12V DC. The MC34063A IC is heart of the project from On semiconductor. The MC33063A is a monolithic control circuit containing the primary functions required for DC-DC converters, This device consist of an internal temperature compensated reference, comparator, controlled duty cycle oscillator with […]
Troubleshooting a 32kHz Crystal Oscillator
https://www.electronics-lab.com/troubleshooting-32khz-crystal-oscillator/
How to Actually Make it Oscillate? Now for an oscillator to work, we need an amplifier with a gain of greater than 1, and a phase shift of 360 degrees to get positive feedback. First problem – the transistor was saturated, with Vc stuck near 0V. For an oscillator to start noise gets amplified, filtered […]
