Microcontroller U1 is "fused" to run off its internal, 128-kHz watchdog oscillator. Since U1 idles when it has nothing to do, its power consumption is less than 1 mW.

Is it possible for a tiny microcontroller to run on a massive 48-V battery? This DIY electronics project makes it happen with ...

Although this circuit connects the DS18S20 1-Wire temperature sensor to a Cypress CY8C26443 PSoC microcontroller, designers can easily adapt it to connect other 1-Wire devices to any microprocessor.

Most of you know how an NFC tag works. The reader creates an RF field that has enough energy to power the electronics in the ...

The protection circuit has virtually no effect on the analog front end. TheIC 2 buffer ensures an input current ofless than 30 pA. The on-resistance ofIC 1 is less than 2Ω. The circuit needsno ...

What color do you like your microcontroller boards? Blue? Red? Maybe white or black? Sadly, all of those are about to look ...

This circuit uses values for a 1-kHz PWM signal. You can improve the circuit by replacing the RC lowpass filter with an active filter and then feeding a feedback signal from the circuit’s output into ...

The TMPM380 MCU was specifically designed for the digital control of high-current circuits commonly found in industrial or appliance applications. Powered by a 40 MHz ARM® Cortex™-M3 processor core ...
