While cruising the Internet one day, [Raj] found a really cool pair of RF transmitters and receivers manufactured by Dorji Applied Technology. These modules – the DRF5150S and DRF4432S – work just ...

STMicroelectronics, a global semiconductor leader serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications and the world's top manufacturer of MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems), today ...

Figure 1 shows how you can connectthe sensor to the microcontroller. Youprogram the microcontroller to generatethe control signals for the sensor. Thedesign uses a 16-MHz clock frequency.The ...

With just a few components, you can provide a translated signal from industrial and PLD sensors that connects safely to a microcontroller, with the added bonus of supplying 7.5 mA of regulated power.

Direct sensor-to-microcontroller interface techniques enable the conversion of physical measurands into digital signals without dedicated analogue-to-digital converter chips or elaborate conditioning ...

The title says it all – this article describes a microcontroller-compatible current sensor module you can build yourself, using an inexpensive 8-pin chip as an ‘active shunt’ for measuring ac/dc ...

In Part 1, we covered the basics ofsensors and the characteristics youmust keep in mind when using them in designs. However, there isan enormous range of specialist sensors developed for ...

Microchip is aiming at analogue sensors with a microcontroller that can measure signals while consuming less than 3µA while sleeping with one comparator monitoring an in-coming voltage. Called ...

When taking measurements from analog sensors located at long distances, voltage drops and noise can affect precision of the readings. Therefore, a voltage-to-current (V/I) module is needed to transmit ...
