When I was in graduate school 10 years ago, a controls group proposed to the power-electronics center to use an advanced microcontroller in power supplies. This controller was to implement a new ...

When building circuits using microcontrollers, you may encounter this situation: "The input turns HIGH or LOW on its own even ...

To convey human intent to an electronic circuit, some form of input method is required. Turning on the power, changing ...

I recently purchased an RGB vandal switch for my PC. I didn't pay too much attention and assumed each color had its own positive and negative lead and you could just plug Red into the power header, ...

AI data center power design has entered a new phase, but it does comes with challenges. The first challenge is architectural: how to move enough power into dense AI racks efficiently. The next ...

Turn ON or OFF electrical devices using remote control is not a new idea and you can find so many different devices doing that very well. For realization of this type of device, you must make a ...

A control program usually requires more than turning outputs on and off. They switch on and off because an event has happened. This event is then connected to the input of the microcontroller to "tell ...

DIY electronics enthusiasts are finding creative ways to shrink powerful microcontrollers into portable, daily-carry gadgets, and custom electronic keychains have quickly become a favourite project.
