In the past couple of instructables I have been using the LinkIt One board, the LinkIt One board is great for IoT projects and in this instructable I’m going to show you how to build a fish food feeder using the LinkIt One, this project is an upgrade to a project I did a while […]

For a number of years now I’ve had a couple of high powered switching power supply units made by Power-One. They’re typically found in I.T. equipment and provide a single output rail of either 12 V or 48 V with a very high current rating. The other cool thing is that in the case of […]

Torex Semiconductor Co., Ltd. and NGK Corporation will exhibit a compact power module sample that can be processed through high-temperature surface mount with using Torex power management ICs and NGK EnerCera series batteries at CES 2020 (January 7th to 10th, 2020 at Las Vegas in the USA). [via] By combining the characteristics of NGK EnerCera batteries which […]

This simple DC motor controller allows for one direction motor control and has been built entirely of reclaimed electrical parts. Using MOSFET’s for motor control instead of control chips, allows for an external power supply and electric isolation of the motor and control board. Which allows for the use of higher voltage and amperage motors […]

GaN Systems and ON Semiconductor announced the availability of the NCP13992UHD300WGEVB, the world’s highest power density 300W ac-dc adapter reference design using GaN Systems’ 650V, 15A gallium-nitride (GaN) E-HEMTs and multiple ON Semiconductor controller and driver ICs, including the NCP51820, NCP13992, NCP1616, and NCP4306. This complete system reference design is a highly versatile and low cost, allowing designers to […]

Thanks to a host of useful feather wings and shields, the Adafruit Feather form factor is becoming a very popular one with a host of other boards now based on it, offering not only the shape and size but also pin compatibility to allow the use feather addons like the FeatherWings and shields. In line with this, Arturo (@Arturo182) recently announced […]

In this instructables, we give a simple example of how to add voice output and distance sensing on everyone’s beloved robot with MediaTek LinkIt ONE. Step 1: Materials 1. Linkit One with Battery 2. Mono Audio Amp Breakout with speaker 3. VL6180X Time-of-Flight Distance Sensor Carrier with Voltage Regulator 4. audio connectors: JST-PH 2-Pin SMT […]

Texas Instruments’ regulator features active output circuitry making it an excellent Zener diode replacement in many applications. Texas Instruments’ ATL431LI device is a three-terminal adjustable shunt regulator with specified thermal stability over applicable automotive, commercial, and military temperature ranges. The output voltage can be set to any value between VREF (approximately 2.5 V) and 36 V, with two external resistors. […]

Augmented and Virtual Reality rank among the top 10 technologies driving Industry 4.0 and while they are having a huge impact on the development of new devices, it’s interesting to see them also being used as a major ingredient in the technology development process. This was one of the reasons why a while back we took a […]

Are you struggling to make your resume more attractive? Well, your CV will unquestionably stand out from those of the other applicants by investing in a high-quality training course. Most employers want their potential employees to have earned a certificate in one of the most popular programs like ITIL, PRINCE2, or Microsoft Office. Even though […]
