In this post we are going to learn about one super old but gold IC called LM7912 or simply IC 7912. This one is not positive regulator like 7805 or 7812, but it is negative regulator which means it gives -12V output and not +12V. If you are making op-amp circuits or dual power supply […]

Explained: MAX4466 Electret Microphone Amplifier Module with Adjustable Gain
In this post we will be talking about this MAX4466 microphone amplifier module, right? So this is a tiny little circuit that can amplify weak sound signals from an electret condenser microphone (ECM). That means it is going to take a very small electrical signal from the microphone and then boost it up so we […]
EGS002 Datasheet, Circuit Diagram Explained
The driver board EGS002 was created especially for single-phase sinusoid inverters. It makes use of an IR2110S driver chip and an ASIC EG8010 control chip. Protection against voltage, current, and temperature is included into the driver board. LEDs are used to indicate warnings, and fan control is included. Jumpers enable the setting of dead time, […]
TPS24710/11/12/13 Hot-Swap Controller Circuit Explained
When we talk about hot-swap controllers, it is basically an electronic device or integrated circuit (IC) that allows you to the insert or/and remove circuit boards, modules or parts within an active system without having you to switch off the system. It regulates the surge current whenever a component is installed and protects from short […]
3 Frequency to Voltage Converter Circuits Explained
As the name suggests frequency to voltage converters are devices that convert a varying frequency input into a correspondingly varying output voltage levels. Here we study three easy yet advanced designs using IC 4151, IC VFC32 and IC LM2907. 1) Using IC 4151 This frequency voltage converter circuit using IC 4151 is characterized by its […]
2 Simple Voltage to Frequency Converter Circuits Explained
A voltage to frequency converter circuit converts a proportionately varying input voltage int a proportionately varying output frequency. The first design is using the IC VFC32 which is an advanced voltage to frequency converter device from BURR-BROWN specifically designed to produce an extremely proportional frequency response to the fed input voltage for a given voltage […]
