How to Add Adjustable Current and Voltage feedback Control to SG3525 Inverters
If you want to build a very heavy power inverter or when you want to make a high frequency induction heater, or when you want to make a lab grade variable SMPS, then getting precise control over both output voltage and current is a major engineering hurdle. Most standard designs using the classic SG3525 PWM […]
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 […]
Simple LED Forward Voltage Drop Tester Circuit
Semiconductor LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) produce light when current flows through them. In comparison to conventional lighting sources, LEDs offer a number of benefits, including high energy efficiency, extended longevity, and low thermal output. The forward voltage drop of an LED is one of the important factors that affects how well leds performs. We will […]
