Water Wave/Tide/Level Meter 2.0 using PIC16F88
Posted on: 19 Jan 2017
Capacitance Probe A simple probe can be made using insulated wire. The insulation is then the dielectric of an cylindrical capacitor with the inner conductor as one plate and the water as the other. The probe is not suitable for distilled or very pure water because it is not conductive enough. It works well even […]
Replacement LED driver for AN6877
Posted on: 19 Jan 2017
AN6877 is linear AF level meter IC produced by Panasonic and it is commonly found on many audio equipment. This chip is no longer manufactured by Panasonic and finding replacement chip for AN6877 is also quiet difficult. The circuit described in this article is design to replace AN6877 base LED drivers and it is based […]
FPGA makes supercomputer run faster
Posted on: 19 Jan 2017
Altera and IBM have designed an FPGA-based reconfigurable processor to improve the performance of supercomputers. The firms have created the first FPGA-based accelerator for a POWER8 CPU which features shared virtual memory between the FPGA and processor and so improves system performance in high-performance computing (HPC) and data centre applications for data compression, encryption, image processing […]
Mork Microchip PIC32MX ICSP
Posted on: 18 Jan 2017
Mork is adaptation of Nanu nanu Microchip PIC ICSP for the STM32 based vcc-gnd or Maple mini. Both STM32 boards are inexpensive boards which don’t cost much more than the Nano 3.0 yet they are far more powerful. One complication though for the vcc-gnd, is that it comes with a serial boot loader which is […]
Introducing the BOLT PIC18F2550 Microcontroller Board using pic microcontoller
Posted on: 18 Jan 2017
The BOLT microcontroller board utilizes the Microchip 18F2550 with built in USB capabilities. Utilizing a 2k ‘boot loader’ this leaves a great deal of flash RAM for C programming using MPLAB and the C18 compiler. The BOLT board comes in two versions. LITE which has the 18F2550, 8 LEDs for PORTB, four switches and a […]
Modern EC fans are able to save up to 50% of energy
Posted on: 18 Jan 2017
Minimum noise, easy speed control and a high power, those are another reasons why to decide for GreenTech EC fans from EBM-Papst. A term „EC fan“ (electronic commutation) is generally used to mark energy-saving AC fans. In fact, these are DC (brushless) fans with AC/DC module and other electronics. EC fans reach up to 90% […]
Voltage- and Current-Mode Control for PWM Signal Generation in DC-to-DC Switching Regulators
Posted on: 17 Jan 2017
Switching DC-to-DC voltage converters (“regulators”) comprise two elements: A controller and a power stage. The power stage incorporates the switching elements and converts the input voltage to the desired output. The controller supervises the switching operation to regulate the output voltage. The two are linked by a feedback loop that compares the actual output voltage […]

Dual Motor L298 H-Bridge Motor Control
Posted on: 17 Jan 2017
Dual Motor L298 H-Bridge Control project can control two DC motors connected to it. The circuit has been designed around popular dual H-Bridge L298 from ST. This circuit has current sense resistors for both H-bridges to provide voltage which enables this board to use in stepper motor applications. Specifications Motor supply : 7 to 46 […]
µLED technology demo board from InfiniLED
Posted on: 17 Jan 2017
Even in these tricky financial times, opto-electronics is offering sufficient funding draw to allow entrepreneurs to start technology companies. One such firm is cork-based InfiniLED, which emerged from the Tyndall National Institute, becoming a company late in 2010. Unusually for a start-up “we were in the strange position of spinning-out of the Institute with a […]
