Pool Buddy – Monitor your pool water quality
Monitor and log water quality (pH & ORP) and temperature from everywhere. Instead of performing regular checks with tester kits to maintain adequate pH and chloride levels in our (small) swimming pool, I decided to build a project that monitors the water continuously and...

Integrated Load Switches versus Discrete MOSFETs
Alek Kaknevicius @ ti.com discuss about load switches and the advantages of intergrated switches over discrete ones. The most common approach to load switching solutions is to use a Power MOSFET surrounded by discrete resistors and capacitors; however, in most cases using a fully...
