The project described here is a compact stereo volume and balance control with rotary encoder. It provides 32 log potentiometer steps with buffered wiper output. The project can easily replace mechanical potentiometer. 5 LEDs indicate the volume level or balance settings , depending...

Texas Instrument's USB Dedicated Charging Port Controller TPS2514 is specifically designed to implement the charging schemas mentioned below. An auto-detect feature monitors USB data line voltage and automatically provides the correct electrical signatures on D+ and D– data lines....

Over time we have built quite a number of data logger projects, but the emergence of more modern development boards, sensors and platforms mean there is an opportunity to add several new features to data-logging devices. For today's tutorial, we are going to build a datalogger based on...

This is a multi-output power supply based on LM2576HV-ADJ and LM317 IC. The power supply provides 3 outputs with input supply up to 55V DC. Output (O1) is adjustable up to 24V DC and load current of 2A, Output (O2) is adjustable to 1.2V-24V with load current up to 500mA and Output...

This is a keystroke injection device (also called badusb). It is similar to a well-known USB rubber ducky made by hak5, but has much extended functionality, lower price and is also completely open source. It looks and feels like an ordinary USB flash drive, but acts as a keyboard that...

Thanks to their tiny size and improved capabilities, the ATtiny-0-Series of microcontrollers have been a delight for designers and DIYers looking for a microcontroller with the ease of use associated with the Arduino boards, but with a way smaller form factor associated with ATtiny...

In one of our previous articles, we built a DIY air quality monitor which was based on measuring the amount of Hydrocarbon concentration in the air using the BME680 VOC Whisker. While things work quite well using that method, there are several other parameters and air constituents which...

This is a 60V to 5V - 3.5A step down DC-DC converter based on TPS54360B from Texas Instruments. Sample applications are: 12 V, 24 V and 48 V industrial, Automotive and Communications Power Systems. The TPS54360 is a 60V, 3.5A, step down regulator with an integrated high side MOSFET....
