The project described here is a power-saving pulse-width modulator (PWM) controller for solenoids with an internal supply regulator. The board is based on the DRV110 IC which is a PWM current controller which is specifically designed for solenoid and relay applications. The project...

The project presented here is capable of supplying 400mA of current from a 3.7V Li-Ion/Li-Po Battery input with a 5V output. The converter has an internal soft start and internal frequency compensation features. The project is built using LTC3426 SOT23-6 chip. The LTC3426 chip is in a...

The board presented here is a preamplifier for contact microphones that are used for amplifying the sound of musical instruments which do not contain electrical pickups, such as guitar and violins. Most contact microphones use a piezo element to convert vibration in the body of the...

The project presented here is a bipolar stepper motor driver. It is based on BD63731EFV chip which is a low-consumption driver that is driven by a PWM signal. The power supply voltage of the project is 8 to 28V DC, and the rated output current is 3A. CLK-IN driving mode is adopted for...

The project presented here is a high common-mode current sense amplifier with two high-speed comparators to detect out-of-range current conditions. The comparators are configured to detect and respond to dual over current conditions. These devices feature an adjustable limit threshold...

Nexperia PBSS4310PAS-Q NPN Low VCEsat Transistor features a very low collector-emitter saturation voltage, high collector current capability, and high efficiency due to less heat generation. The PBSS4310PAS-Q is housed in an ultra-thin SOT1061D (DFN2020D-3) leadless small...

A UPDI USB programmer (Unified Program and Debug Interface) is basically an Atmel / Microchip proprietary programming interface used for some AVR microcontrollers like the ATtiny series. AVR is an 8-bit RISC architecture microcontroller that is developed by Atmel. With the newer...

Seeed Studio’s reComputer Jetson series has been around for a while, and are compact edge computers built around the famous NVIDIA Jetson modules for AI embedded applications. The manufacturer continues to add more devices to the list with the all-new reComputer hand-sized edge AI...
