The ATMega32 is an widely used microcontroller from Atmel. It shares many similarities with the ATMega328P but has a more reduced memory capacity. However, the ATMega32 makes up for this with a greater number of input/output pins available. A key advantage of the ATMega32 is that each GPIO pin can exclusively support either digital input/output …

Microchip’s high-side bidirectional current sensing monitor ICs come in a RoHS compliant DFN package The PAC1710 from Microchip Technology is a high-side bidirectional current sensing monitor with precision voltage measurement capabilities. The power monitor measures the voltage developed across an external sense resistor to represent the high-side current of a battery or voltage regulator. The PAC1710 also measures …
DC-DC converters are needed in almost every commercial product, whether it is industrial, medical, defensive, automotive, or any other application. These converters are electronic circuits that can convert the DC voltage from one level to another. There are two types of DC-DC converters: linear and switching converters. Linear converters are resistive which means that they …
Maxim Integrated MAX20361 Single-Cell/Multi-Cell Solar Harvester is a fully integrated solution for harvesting energy from single-cell and multi-cell solar sources. The MAX20361 includes an ultra-low quiescent current (360nA) boost converter that is capable of starting from input voltages as low as 225mV. To maximize the power extracted from the source, the MAX20361 implements a proprietary maximum power point tracking …

Linear voltage regulators are used to maintaining a steady output voltage. They are step-down converters where the input voltage is always higher than the output voltage. The output voltage can be adjusted by external resistors. 78xx series is a very popular linear voltage regulator series. 78xx series, however, do not require external components for setting the output …
