Antenna performance isn't just about the antenna itself. The PCB beneath it is determining range, efficiency, & wireless ...

When designing a system, one of the most important design decisions is choosing what voltage domain(s) to use. Some voltage domains, such as 5 V, are good for noisy and harsh operating environments ...

While microcontroller specs may be the first thing engineers look at when deciding on a device for their system, the ecosystem that surrounds the microcontroller is certainly very important, and ...

Abstract: Stellaris® LM3S microcontrollers are highly integrated system-on-chip (SOC) devices with extensive interface and processing capabilities. Consequently, there are many factors to consider ...

How to implement a microcontroller to monitor ac-motor speed. Steps taken to test and register the pulses detected for each motor. When you need to monitor the speed of ac motors to achieve ...

While DSPs are the primary controllers in uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) with power-factor correction (PFC), ac generation and battery management, microcontrollers serve secondary functions for ...

The 555 timer is one of the most versatile integrated circuits available. It can generate PWM signals, tones, and single-shot pulses. You can even put one in a bi-stable mode similar to a flip flop.

Why do LED displays still feel limited? A design approach removes size, wiring, and power limits, helping engineers build ...
