Designing in MOSFETs for safe and reliable gate-drive operation
https://www.electronics-lab.com/designing-mosfets-safe-reliable-gate-drive-operation/
The MOSFET gate-source threshold voltage (VGS-th) and maximum gate-source voltage(VGS-max) are key parameters that are critical to the reliable operation of MOSFETs. The threshold voltage represents the voltage at which the MOSFET starts to turn on, whilst the maximum gate-source voltage is the maximum gate-source voltage that the MOSFET can withstand safely. VGS-max ratings vary […]
Inside the digital clock from a Soyuz spacecraft
https://www.electronics-lab.com/inside-digital-clock-soyuz-spacecraft/
Ken Shirriff published an interesting article on his blog. He writes: We recently obtained a clock that flew on a Soyuz space mission.1 The clock, manufactured in 1984, contains over 100 integrated circuits on ten circuit boards. Why is the clock so complicated? In this blog post, I examine the clock’s circuitry and explain why […]
Network Clock using ESP8266 and OLED display
https://www.electronics-lab.com/network-clock-using-esp8266-oled-display/
There are several situations where using an RTC could adversely affect your project by increasing cost, size, time accuracy or IO requirements. To prevent this, especially in ESP/WiFi-based or other clock-reliant projects, makers usually turn to obtain time information from NTP servers. I recently came across a project by BitsandBlobs which used standalone NTP Servers […]

Arduino RFID Reader using the ArduiTouch MKR Enclosure
https://www.electronics-lab.com/arduino-rfid-reader-using-arduitouch-mkr-enclosure/
RFID based projects are one of the most popular Arduino projects out there and we have also built a couple of them here too, but I recently came across an RFID access control project by hwhardsoft that was built using the ArduiTouch MKR enclosures. The ready-made nature of the enclosures and their existence for different […]
