ATtiny402 Timer with low power sleep mode
https://www.electronics-lab.com/attiny402-timer-low-power-sleep-mode/
David Johnson-Davies published another great mini project. It’s a Timer based on ATtiny402 and was build to demonstrate the low power sleep mode of the microcontroller. This article describes how to use the new 0-series and 1-series ATtiny microcontrollers in low-power projects, taking advantage of sleep mode to maximise the battery life and avoid the […]
Tiny Reflow Controller with OLED display
https://www.electronics-lab.com/project/tiny-reflow-controller-oled-display/
Last time we examined how to build a DIY Reflow Oven controller using the Tiny Reflow Oven Controller v1 by Rocket Stream. However, Rocket Stream recently released the Tiny Reflow Controller V2 and for today’s tutorial, we will attempt to build this second version. The Tiny Reflow controller v1 we discussed in the first article […]
5 Buck Regulators with Low Iq
https://www.electronics-lab.com/5-buck-regulators-low-iq/
Low quiescent current, also called supply current, might be an important spec for your power-supply design.. by Paul Rako @ electronicdesign.com Quiescent current is the current that a chip needs to operate even if it’s not delivering power. It’s the bare minimum supply current the chip will use. For buck-regulator chips, improved processes have reduced […]
