Low-cost, 8-bit, single-chip microcontrollers are stingy when it comes to on-chip PWM (pulse-width-modulation) resources. The use of a PWM resource often forces a designer to sacrifice a ...

Those following the ProtoStack tutorials will be happy to hear that there is a new installment which explains Pulse Width Modulation. If you’ve never heard of PWM before, it’s a method of generating a ...

Pulse width modulation is a form of signal communication that transposes a signal from analog to digital form. Analog signals with changing amplitude and frequency pass through a comparator and are ...

LCD circuits often require a –10V voltage at 2 to 15 mA to bias a graphics-LCD-driver IC. You can usually accomplish this task with an external charge-pump IC, such as Maxim’s ICL7660, but that ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. This 8051 microcontroller-based control circuit adjusts the speed of a small permanent-magnet dc motor via photosensors ...

IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba America Electronic Components, Inc. (“Toshiba”) has launched the “TB67B000AHG,” a new three-phase brushless motor driver for home appliances such as ...

Toshiba is sampling a gate driver IC designed to control high-current brushed DC motors Applications include powered tailgates, sliding doors and seat adjusters.

Toshiba offers samples of a compact, SPI‑enabled gate driver that helps enhance safety and reduce wiring for high‑current automotive motor systems.

The table shows the pin configuration of the Arduino UNO–based robotic arm. The red (VCC) wires of all servos are connected ...

If you wanted to build a robot that chased light, you might start thinking about Raspberry Pis, cameras, and off-the-shelf computer vision systems. However, it needn’t be so complex. [Ed] of ...
