The MCP120 is a microcontroller voltage supervisory circuit with open drain output. This voltage supervisory device is designed to hold a microcontroller in reset until the supply voltage has reached ...

In MCU-based projects, this design uses a single push button to switch on and switch off 5-V and 15-V supplies in sequence.

Drawing and analysing flowchart diagrams involves elements like count, compare, macro, do macro, end, increments, decrements, and expressions. Microcontrollers (PICs) are used in control systems, ...

Voltage-to-current converters that feed grounded loads are common in industrial measurement and control applications. The conventional "textbook" circuit uses both positive and negative supply rails.

[manuka], aka [Stan Swan] is a teacher in New Zealand who enjoys enlightening his students on the wonders of electrical circuits. He primarily uses “snap connector” circuit kits, sold under the ...

This design, based on a Maxim MAX220 RS-232 driver/receiver IC, allows you to increase the number of USARTs (universal synchronous, asynchronous receiver/transmitters) available on a microcontroller.

The first program anyone writes for a microcontroller is the blinking LED which involves toggling a general-purpose input/output (GPIO) on and off. Consequently, the same GPIO can be used to read ...

A microprocessor is an integrated circuit that contains no memory. A microcontroller has the ability to store information. The size of a circuit can be significantly reduced. This is because ...

Toshiba offers samples of a compact, SPI‑enabled gate driver that helps enhance safety and reduce wiring for high‑current automotive motor systems.
