The LTC4282 is an energy monitoring Hot Swap controller with dual MOSFET drive to enable 100A and higher current board designs. The LTC4282 ensures safe board insertion and removal from live 2.9V to 33V backplanes by controlling external N­channel MOSFETs to gently power up...

Jim Colby @ edn-europe.com discuss how to protect your circuits on automotive enviroment: Along with the ever increasing drive for improved gas mileage, automobile manufacturers are striving to make their vehicles safer with each new design iteration. The safety features that are now...

by eliesalame @ instructables.com: In this project I will show you how make two Arduinos talk to each other using RF frequency (wireless). Now I will use the knowledge in all these project and improve on them by making one Arduino send data to another Arduino wirelessly using an...

Georgia Institute of Technology managed to cool FPGA trasistors using water, they announced: Using microfluidic passages cut directly into the backsides of production field-programmable gate array (FPGA) devices, Georgia Institute of Technology researchers are putting liquid cooling...

circuitvalley.com has build a small FPGA board based on Xilinx  XC3S250E : I have built a little FPGA board Xilinx xc3s250e called WireFrame. the board is only 500mm x 25 mm in size and it is possible to put it breadboard. board has 32MByte SDRAM, 4MByte serial Flash for storage....

More than 50 developers tested Wiznet modules during Pizza workshops in Brno, Bratislava and Budapest. The main topic of Pizzaworkshop was Ethernet communication via Wiznet modules. Developers had a chance to test how fast and simple it is to connect the device to Ethernet and all...

by Jason Poel Smith @ makezine.com: Halloween is the perfect opportunity to create fun special effects. When you want to be able to control props and effects remotely, one good option is to use an infrared remote control. In this project, I’ll show you some simple remote...

by liwenyip @ instructables.com: In this tutorial I’ll show you how to use an Arduino to decode signals from RF remotes, and re-send them to remotely control some mains switches and a garage door. Decoding and sending 433MHz RF codes with Arduino -...
