    Measure the current with wire loop

    I'm designing a circuit with several power regulators and ICs. One of the requirements is to be able to measure the current on each rail. The first option is to add some small shunt resistors in series to the regulators, another, as requested by my client, is to have the possibility to...

    Mixed-signal Chips verification planning, process and data storage

    I agree with you. We have automated as much as possible but nothing beats the manual test, in particular for analog parts... At some point we had automated so much and we had a software directly generating the ppt with pass/fail markings on 300+ slides. The problem was that some engineers...

    12V Halogen bulb dimmer

    Hi Brian, do you happen to have the/a schematic available? I'm curious to see it...

    Mixed-signal Chips verification planning, process and data storage

    Hi guys, I work as application engineer in a chip company. We are mostly focused on switching regulators isolated and non, so analog stuff. We all know chip verification is a fundamental step. At my company, there is no standard practice for the system verification: depending on the team, some...

    12V Halogen bulb dimmer

    I feel like I'm getting there with the understanding: thank you guys! I did some parallel research and it seems that, in general, electronic transformer are dimmable, but one should use trailing edge modulation instead of the leading edge used with regular transformer or straight incandescent...

    12V Halogen bulb dimmer

    Ok, the model of the transformer in my lamps is Anchorn AET-C060B1. I could not find any data sheet on the website, but they are called "electronic transformer" so it looks like they are likely SMPS circuit. Can anyone confirm? I have two follow up questions: 1) Why would a lower voltage...

    12V Halogen bulb dimmer

    Hi guys, I installed a row a halogen bulbs in my house. Each has a 12V transformer. The electrician installed the row of bulbs in parallel with an incandescent light. Curious fact is that the dimmer does not work properly if I install only the halogen bulbs but it works ok if there is a one (or...

    Garage door opener controller via WiFi

    Right. I was hoping in a shortcut in IC form. I will check the IC into the remote I will receive. Worst case (I cannot recognize the IC in the remote or I cannot find a way to get some) I will hook my circuit to push the remote's button instead of the opener's.

    Garage door opener controller via WiFi

    I know, new openers use rolling code algorithms to communicate with remotes... that is why I was trying to figure out if there are all-in-one ICs to manage the rolling and storage part, so that all I have to do is make a PCB housing the battery, the loop antenna and few other things without...

    Garage door opener controller via WiFi

    Hi, I want to build a circuit to control my garage door opener over WiFi. I figured the WiFi part but I have problems with the circuit-to-opener communications: 1) Most circuit I have seen online directly connect the circuit to the opener via wires. Unfortunately my model of opener is pretty...

    Why does TMR1 count twice?

    I thought that in this case Proteus would have not made analog simulation on pins. I'll try your suggestion and I'll report the result. Thank you. Bye Added after 2 hours 33 minutes: I connected a capacitor of 100nF (I tryed even with bigger ones) from the pin to ground but the situation...

    Why does TMR1 count twice?

    tmr-1 Hello everybody, Since I want to learn Proteus, I'm developing simple circuits with pic 16f877a writing the firmware with Hi-tech Picc 9.50pl2. Currently I'm trying to use TMR1 to create a 16-bit counter. The circuit I designed is very simple: it consists in a push-button connected to...

    Fast Buffer with Schmitt trigger

    Hello, I need the fastest and commercially available logic buffer with triggered input. It's important for my application to have a small propagation delay. I prefer SMD packages. Tnx in advance.

    Proteus doesn't sounds good...

    Hello, I'm try to learn how to use proteus to project simple circuits. I have tryed to design a simple circuit: an inverting-amplifier made with the ideal model of the operational amplifier and a simple resistive reaction, a sort of "hello world" for a computer programmer. Then I connected a...

    Low cost 433 mhz RX/TX circuit's

    jacar ic data 433 mhz transmitters receivers Else a good book is "short range wireless communications" by alan bensky. This gives a very good start i designing and understanding these type of systems. hi all, where can I find this book? I want to realize a complete transceiver using discrete...
