Bifacial solar cells boost efficiency
https://www.electronics-lab.com/bifacial-solar-cells-boost-efficiency/
by Harry Baggen @ elektormagazine.com: The Belgian nanoelectronics research center Imec has developed a very efficient bifacial n-PERT (BiPERT) solar cell technology with a bifaciality factor of nearly 100%. The cell efficiency at the rear is nearly as high as the efficiency at the front. Bifacial solar cells capture not only the light falling on […]
Arduino 8 Digit, 7 Segment BCD Counter using MAX7219
https://www.electronics-lab.com/arduino-8-digit-7-segment-bcd-counter-using-max7219/
PugazhM @ instructables.com show us how to make a 7 segment BCD counter using MAX7219 and Arduino. In Embedded system design, seven segment displays are playing a major role as numerical visual indications. Seven segment LED displays are brighter, more attractive and provide a far viewing distance as well as a wider viewing angle as […]
LT8335 – Low IQ Boost/SEPIC/ Inverting Converter with 2A, 28V Switch
https://www.electronics-lab.com/lt8335-low-iq-boostsepic-inverting-converter-2a-28v-switch/
LT8335 is a current mode, 2 MHz step-up DC/DC converter with an internal 2A, 28V switch. It operates from an input voltage range of 3V to 25V, suitable for applications with input sources ranging from a single-cell Li-Ion to automotive inputs. The LT8335 can be configured as either a boost, SEPIC or an inverting converter. […]
