Fast division of 32 bits by 5, code in assembly As you know, a function can be made faster if more registers are used in its algorithm. Based on this, I guess the following code (div32b_5: in assembly) is the fastest one for... |

Overvoltage Protection for AC-DC supply (SMPS) This project helps in extending the upper voltage rating of an SMPS (for example, 24V/1A) from 250 Vrms to 380 Vrms while increasing its lowest voltage by about 4V only (for... |

Overvoltage Protection for Low Power SMPS Lately, I needed to extend the upper voltage rating of an SMPS (24V, 1A) from 250 to 380Vrms. So I added to it a circuit in series to act as an active high-voltage zener. I... |

Controller for 8 AC LED Strips on a Christmas Tree It happened that some local retailers imported, from China, LED strips made for 220V (50Hz). One strip could have a length of 1m, 2m, 3m... etc. But it (as a single LED) has... |

Quiz for fun, I/O pin and 4 levels Let us assume; we like to monitor on a scope the timing of 4 stages while an MCU code is running. But one I/O pin only is free for this task. As we know, an I/O pin (as of... |

To graduate students in telecommunications I am just curious to know if, at the today’s universities, the following statement is still valid. "Demodulating a single side-band suppressed carrier signal (SSB-SC) is much... |

MCU EEPROM and Lock Bits Just to be sure, isn’t true that it is not possible locking the MCU flash memory (of code) without locking with it the internal EEPROM? In other words, it is not possible reading... |
