Getting Started with MicroPython on ESP32 using uPyCraft IDE

Getting Started with MicroPython on ESP32 using uPyCraft IDE

Most of us are familiar with the Python programming language. Python is a very powerful programming language and used to build many applications from the Internet of Things to Artificial Intelligence (AI). By seeing the popularity of python, this community developed the reimplementation of Python which is called MicroPython. So in this tutorial, we will get to know about MicroPython, how […]

Switched Capacitor Voltage Converter

Switched Capacitor Voltage Converter

A switched capacitor voltage converter performs energy transfer and voltage conversion using capacitors. There are mainly two types of switched capacitor voltage converters, first is the voltage inverter circuit and the second is the voltage doubler circuit. These types of circuits are commonly known as charge pump circuits. In this project, we will design a switched capacitor voltage inverter using Texas Instruments LMC7660S IC, and

PWM Inverter Circuit using TL494

PWM Inverter Circuit using TL494

An inverter is a circuit that converts Direct Current (DC) to Alternating Current (AC). A PWM inverter is a type of circuit that uses modified square waves to simulate the effects of Alternating Current (AC), which is suitable for powering most of your household appliances. I say most-of because there generally exist two types of inverters, the first type is the so-called a modified square

Buck Boost Regulator using XL6009 with Adjustable 3.3V to 12V Output Voltage

Buck Boost Regulator using XL6009 with Adjustable 3.3V to 12V Output Voltage

Buck-Boost regulator is made using two different topologies, as the name suggests, it consists of both buck and boost topology. We already know that Buck Regulator Topology provides a lower magnitude of output voltage than the input voltage, while a Boost Regulator Topology provides a higher magnitude of output voltage than the provided input voltage. We have already built

High Power High Efficiency Buck Converter Circuit using TL494

High Power High Efficiency Buck Converter Circuit using TL494

A buck converter (step-down converter) is a DC-to-DC switching converter that steps down voltage while maintaining a constant power balance. The main feature of a buck converter is efficiency, which means with a buck converter on board, we can expect extended battery life, reduced heat, smaller size, and improved efficiency. We previously made a few simple Buck converter

Over Voltage Over Current Transient Voltage Reverse Polarity Protection Circuit using RT1720 Hot Swap Controller with Fault Timer

Over Voltage, Over Current, Transient Voltage & Reverse Polarity Protection Circuit using RT1720 Hot Swap Controller with Fault Timer

Oftentimes in an electronic circuit, it’s absolutely necessary to use a special protection unit to protect the circuit from overvoltage, overcurrent, transient voltage, and reverse polarity and so on. So, to protect the circuit from these surges, Richtek Semiconductor introduced the RT1720A IC which is an oversimplified protection IC designed to meet the needs. The
