1-12-2001 | It is well known that the p-n junction of a diode has a temperature coefficient of –2 mV/°C, and this fact is often used for temperature mea...

1-12-2001 | Nowadays, you do not actually need to build twilight switches yourself, since they can be purchased quite inexpensively. However, if you enj...

1-12-2001 | Pinball simulators are nothing new. There is probably not a single computer system in existence for which no pinball game has been made. A f...

1-12-2001 | With a suitable load, the terminal voltage of a NiCd or lithium-ion battery is proportional to the amount of stored energy. This relationshi...

1-11-2001 | This circuit can measure the capacity of individual cells as well as battery packs with an open circuit voltage of up to 35 V. The only requ...

1-11-2001 | Every electronics laboratory needs a powerful regulated bench supply. In the model described here a microcontroller monitors the actual and...

1-11-2001 | In this second and final part of the remote control design we put it all together and take a closer look at the workings of the transmitter...

1-10-2001 | Point any IR remote controller at this nifty device and its in-built microcontroller will quickly analyse the signal and reveal which of eig...

1-10-2001 | Here’s a design that should gladden the hearts of many model builders. A really small proportional remote control unit built using standard...

1-10-2001 | There are so many different configurations of the SC12 that we only have space here to cover the basic installation and operation of the Per...
