A Step-Down Regulator Requires Only Three External Components
Posted on: 24 Oct 2013
The LTC3639 step-down regulator integrates key high performance features into one compact IC. It is capable of up to 150V input voltage and 100mA output current, utilizing synchronous rectification and low quiescent current to maintain high efficiency over a broad spectrum of load current. Its adjustable output can be programmed from 0.8V to VIN, while […]
Rechargeable Wooden Battery
Posted on: 23 Oct 2013
Inspired by trees scientists at the University of Maryland have developed a nanobattery that uses tin-coated wood fibers to store liquid electrolytes. Replacing the lithium found in many rechargeable batteries by sodium makes the battery environmentally benign. Sodium doesn’t store energy as efficiently as lithium, so you won’t see this battery in your cell phone […]

How To Recreate The Classic Pong Game Using Arduino
Posted on: 19 Oct 2013
Pong was the first ever videogame that reached the mass market. For the first time in history, the concept of a “video game” was brought into the family home, thanks to the Atari 2600 – so it’s only right that we pay a little homage to this historical gem. Now, you can re-live that (admittedly […]
PCBAWEEK – A PCB every week
Posted on: 18 Oct 2013
Just for the fun of it I’ll try do design and order a Seeedstudio 5×5 cm PCB every week. I’ll do the design and layout during the week and weekend and then submit the order on Monday. I’m not 100% sure that I’ll actually will be able to do this every week, but I’ll try […]
