Low-cost, 8-bit, single-chip microcontrollers are stingy when it comes to on-chip PWM (pulse-width-modulation) resources. The use of a PWM resource often forces a designer to sacrifice a ...

Pulse width modulation is a form of signal communication that transposes a signal from analog to digital form. Analog signals with changing amplitude and frequency pass through a comparator and are ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Sometimes a design needs more DACs than the mixed-signal microcontroller has available. An easy solution is to put in a ...

LCD circuits often require a –10V voltage at 2 to 15 mA to bias a graphics-LCD-driver IC. You can usually accomplish this task with an external charge-pump IC, such as Maxim’s ICL7660, but that ...

As a result, remote control technologies are being widely adopted across various sectors. Among the many components used in ...

Atmel(R) Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML), a global leader in the development and fabrication of advanced semiconductor solutions, announced today the availability of the new ATA6831 driver IC with enhanced ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. This 8051 microcontroller-based control circuit adjusts the speed of a small permanent-magnet dc motor via photosensors ...

IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba America Electronic Components, Inc. (“Toshiba”) has launched the “TB67B000AHG,” a new three-phase brushless motor driver for home appliances such as ...

Back in October I was pondering the creation of accurate micro-voltages from a microcontroller. What makes this so difficult is the voltage offset created by current in the microcontroller bond wire, ...

[Hugatry] wanted to replace the adjustment pot on an LM2596 buck converter with a microprocessor-controlled voltage. The regulator IC uses a divider to generate a 1.25V reference from the output. The ...

SAN JOSE , Calif., April 27, 2010 — Toshiba America Electronic Components, Inc. (TAEC)*, a committed leader that collaborates with technology companies to create breakthrough designs, today ...
