How to Connect LM338 IC in Parallel to Increase Output Current
The LM338 is an adjustable 3-terminal positive voltage regulator capable of providing up to 5 amperes of output current. To increase the output current capability, you can connect multiple LM338 ICs in parallel. When you connect them in parallel, each IC will share the load current, allowing you to achieve higher total current handling capacity. […]
How to Connect Solar Panels in Series and Parallel
In this post we will study how to connect solar panels in series and parallel and also learn how to calculate solar panels in series and parallel. Before I have explained the connection details, it would be important for us to learn some of the important parameters and specifications related to solar panels. Solar Panel […]
How to Connect an IR Photodiode Sensor in a Circuit
In this post I have explained how to correctly connect an IR photodiode in circuits such as a proximity sensor circuit. The explanation is presented in the form a discussion between one of the dedicated readers of this blog NVD, and me. Here’s the discussion which explains how to connect a photodiode in an electronic […]
