How to control LM2596 buck-converter with microcontroller


https://www.electronics-lab.com/how-to-control-lm2596-buck-converter-with-microcontroller/

by hugatry @ hackvlog.com: Every now and then someone asks on different forums if there is an way to control cheap LM2596 modules with an Arduino or another microcontroller. I decided to demonstrate one solution that might be basic electronics for some, but still many don’t know about. Those buck converters will change the output voltage […]

PIC18 Development Board with Ethernet and USB


https://www.electronics-lab.com/pic18-development-board-with-ethernet-and-usb/

by magkopian @ instructables.com: The development board is based on a PIC18LF4553 microcontroller. The microcontroller features a Full Speed USB 2.0 (12Mbit/s) interface without the need for any external components. Also, it has 32KB of program memory, 2KB of RAM and it supports an external clock up to 48MHz, which is optional because it also has […]

Using Efficient SPI Peripherals for Low-Cost MCU-Based IoT Designs


https://www.electronics-lab.com/using-efficient-spi-peripherals-for-low-cost-mcu-based-iot-designs/

by Warren Miller @ digikey.com: Efficient Internet of Things (IoT) designs must balance a host of requirements that often work against each other. Low cost is important, but often supporting all the key features required by the application increases MCU pin count and memory size—two things that work against low cost. Low power is also […]

Externally clocking (and overclocking) AVR MCUs


https://www.electronics-lab.com/externally-clocking-and-overclocking-avr-mcus/

by nerdralph.blogspot.ca: People familiar with AVR boards such as Arduinos likely know most AVR MCUs can be clocked from an external crystal connected to 2 of the pins. When the AVR does not need to run at a precise clock frequency, it is also common to clock them from the internal 8Mhz oscillator. Before CPUs were […]
