    230V AC to 5V DC push button interfacing

    Thanks for that. I will design the circuit as you suggested and upload it here for review

    230V AC to 5V DC push button interfacing

    I will clarify, The 5V switch was just to test the logic. I cannot use it as the switch is dictated to me as 230V. That is why I am changing it and that is why I cannot use the flyback to feed it. So I ask, will it work or not? What are the risks? Thanks for the help Tomer

    230V AC to 5V DC push button interfacing

    You are right, the previous schematic had a mistake. This is the correct schematic. As for powering the MCU, I do have a flyback converter directly from the AC mains to the 5V supply. My only issue is to translate the AC pulse from the push button. Will the new circuit work? In open state...

    230V AC to 5V DC push button interfacing

    Hi, I am designing a system to control fan speeds. The selection of the speeds will be done using an MCU that will select the correct output to the fan. The selection is done by a single push button, each press changes the speed. This logic is working using a push-button connected directly to...

    [SOLVED] Reverse polarity protection using N-channel MOSFET

    Thanks. That was helpful. As for the diode, you are right - it is a remanent of an old design, it will be removed.

    [SOLVED] Reverse polarity protection using N-channel MOSFET

    The battery is connected to the MPPT output. What you see is the MPPT input. See attachment below for the complete circuit (not fully designed yet). The question is what is better (if there is any difference) for the Zener.

    [SOLVED] Reverse polarity protection using N-channel MOSFET

    Hi Guys, I need to protect my circuit from reverse polarity. The relevant part of the circuit if an MPPT charger for a battery. The input is a solar panel. The voltage of the panel is to high for the MOSFET so I need a Zener diode to reduce the voltage. My question is how to connect the Zener...

    Replacing car radio speaker with dummy load

    Thanks Brian, That was my thought as well. What will happen if I put a larger value resistor? Will it damage the amplifier? - - - Updated - - - Thanks Brian, That was my thought as well. What will happen if I put a larger value resistor? Will it damage the amplifier?

    Replacing car radio speaker with dummy load

    Hi, I have system for sampling signals from a car radio. It is done by placing the sampling circuit in parallel to one of the speaker. The system is working fine. My problem is that when I need to run many tests and in different volume levels it is very inconvenient to work in the room with...

    Level selctive attenuator

    Thanks Brad, Mostly I prefer to work with IC but building an AGC from scratch is also an option for me. I do not need a pre-amp since the input to the mic port is not an actual microphone but a signal that is originating from a high power amplifier - that is actually the source of my problem...

    Level selctive attenuator

    Thank you Bead, The AGC/DRC should be placed before the line (or mic) input. Can you point me to an example of a circuit please?

    Level selctive attenuator

    Hi, I have a project where I feed line level amplifier from a high gain amplifier. The main problem that I have if with the gain difference so I introduced an attenuator which solved my problem when the high gain amplifier was at his peak volume but now I have a problem with the low level...

    How to connect mic in parallel with loudspeaker

    Thank you very much. I will build it, test it and report the findings. Probably will take me about a week until all the parts arrive Thanks again, Tome

    Appropriate surface mount dc to dc converter?

    Hi, you can use TI webench https://www.ti.com/lsds/ti/analog/webench/overview.page?DCMP=analog_power_mr&HQS=webench-pr It is an online tool to help design DC convertors, it has parts selection option and you can input the required parameters to narrow the selection. It also shows a suggested...
