Dual DC Motor Driver For Robot with L298
Dual Motor L298 H-Bridge Control project can control two DC motors connected to it. The circuit is designed around popular dual H-Bridge L298 from ST. This board can be configured to drive a single motor with high current rating also. This can be achieved with the help of jumpers on...

Review & Teardown of a cheap GPS Jammer
phasenoise has posted his teardown of a cheap GPS Jammer. This GPS jammer generates a 1575.42 Mhz interference to prevent your GPS unit from receiving correct positioning signals. Generally, “jammers” — which are also commonly called signal blockers, GPS jammers, cell phone...

Teardown: 12V AC adapters
Michael Dunn has done three teardowns of the worst 12V adapters and what he found is interesting. Yes! Can you believe it? This board used to be in another adapter housing, or more likely, in an end-product. It seems Chinese manufacturing has sunk to a new low: repackaging used...

Basic Switching Voltage Regulator Tutorial
James Lewis @ baldengineer.com discuss about switching regulator types and uses. A switching voltage regulator is one of my favorite circuits. In school, they were the first circuits I built where I understood how transistors worked. In fact, they were the first circuit I saw an...

Arduino Body Thermometer + LCD I2C
This is a body thermometer using a thermistor sensor, Arduino and LCD display. I've decided to provide a funny Arduino concept thermometer in case its the middle of the night, pharmacies are not working, you are not feeling well and you want to check your body temperature. If you...

Simple circuit provides precision ADC interface
Moshe Gerstanhaber @ edn.com provides an simple ADC interface using instrumentation amplifier IC. Real-world measurement requires the extraction of weak signals from noisy sources. High common-mode voltages are often present even in differential measurements. The usual approach to...
