MURATA POWER SOLUTIONS MYR SERIES ULTRA-SMALL .5A TO 2A DC/DC CONVERTERS

Murata’s MYR series are the PicoBK™ DC/DC converters that integrate a coil and a control IC. The ultra-small form-factor measures 2.5 mm x 2.0 mm x 1.0 mm. The MYR series is significantly smaller than discrete solutions. In most cases, these modules occupy less than half the footprint of the same solution implemented with discrete components. […]

Radioactivity detection using very simple ionization chamber

Today I will show a very simple ionization chamber that can detect radioactivity. I was able to detect with it ionizing radiation from a smoke detector (Am241 isotope). It’s also immune to electromagnetic interference (EMI) due to a good shielding. This device doesn’t explicitly use any power supply. It’s connected to a multimeter set to

Extend PIC Microcontroller‘s RAM by without using EMI

Introduction Virtually all PIC microcontrollers have some banking mechanism to extend addressing to additional memory space. But this external data memory is not directly addressable (except in some high versions of PIC18 devices, which include PIC18F8520, PIC18F6620, etc.). In this post we describe easy to implement external memory interface for PIC microcontrollers. Theoretically most of
