Supercapacitors to replace batteries?
https://www.electronics-lab.com/supercapacitors-to-replace-batteries/
by Martin Cooke @ elektormagazine.com: It was reported last year that researchers at Rice University in the US, led by chemist James Tour had developed a method of producing a form of graphene on commercial polyimide plastic sheet by zapping it with a laser. The process is called LIG (Laser Induced Graphene). The resulting graphene layer […]

LT8714 – 80V/5A synchronous 4-quadrant DC/DC controller
https://www.electronics-lab.com/lt8714-80v5a-synchronous-4-quadrant-dcdc-controller/
Linear Technology Corporation announces the LT8714, an 80V input synchronous PWM four quadrant output DC/DC controller. This device cleanly transitions the output voltage through zero volts with up to 5A sourcing and sinking current capability, regardless of the output voltage polarity, making it ideal for regulating to positive, negative, or zero volts. The bipolar output […]
Arduino Tutorial: Using the Soil Moisture Sensor along with a Nokia 5110 LCD display
https://www.electronics-lab.com/arduino-tutorial-using-the-soil-moisture-sensor-along-with-a-nokia-5110-lcd-display/
Using the soil moisture sensor with an Arduino can’t be easier. Adding a Nokia 5110 LCD display makes things more professional since we can visually check the moisture levels of the soil. The sensor can measure the levels of moisture in the soil. So it can be extremely useful if you want to monitor the […]
Galvanic Skin Response System
https://www.electronics-lab.com/galvanic-skin-response-system/
The Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) is a property of the skin to exhibit electrical characteristics. It is also known as Electrodermal Activity (EDA), Electrodermal Response (EDR), Electrodermal Level (EDL), Skin Conductance Activity (SCA), Skin Conductance Response (SCR), and a lot more. The GSR utilizes the principle that skin property varies with the state of sweat […]
Designing and Building a binary clock
https://www.electronics-lab.com/designing-and-building-a-binary-clock/
Parker Dillmann @ macrofab.com has designed a wrist LED binary clock based on PIC16F527 Microchip mcu. The Macro Watch stemmed from those constraints. I picked the PIC16F527 microcontroller by Microchip to be the core of the watch because it was the cheapest MCU I could find that had enough I/O and I knew at least […]
