https://www.electronics-lab.com/1mm-height-smd-led-can-placed-upside/
Kingbright KPTR series, suitable for reverse mounting, makes it possible to achieve that the LED is hidden in the PCB. Naturally, manufacturing LED with a zero height is most likely unreal at the current physics status and 3D experience of the world. Nevertheless, it´s still possible to reach the goal that the LED wouldn’t stick […]
PiSugar – Battery for Raspberry Pi zero
https://www.electronics-lab.com/pisugar-battery-raspberry-pi-zero/
Raspberry Pi zero is very small, but it’s not cute with a power bank which maybe five times bigger. PiSugar is a battery project designed for Pi zero. It’s super easy to use, no need for soldering, no conflict with other piHats. It perfectly matches the size of Pi zero. via Jdaie @ hackaday.io Many […]
App note: How to use power inductors
https://www.electronics-lab.com/app-note-use-power-inductors/
A great guide from TDK about power inductors used in DC-DC converters. As electronic devices become more advanced, the power supply voltage of LSIs used in them is lowered, so their power consumption can be reduced and their speed increased. However, a decrease in the power supply voltage also causes the requirements regarding voltage fluctuations […]
