VIDEO KR and KW Series Coin Cell Supercapacitors Replace Coin Cell Batteries

The KR and KW family of supercapacitors replace button cell batteries (and the battery holder) for real-time clock backup power, and provide ridethrough for battery operated devices to allow time for battery replacements.

REFERENCE DESIGN DC1066A: 48 V @ 5 A Ideal Diode-OR Controller

DC1066A showcases the LTC4355 positive high voltage diode-OR controller and monitor in a 200 W, 48 V application.

ARTICLE Use a Low-Power Sensor AFE to Implement a High-Precision Chemical Or Biological Sensing System

Without accurate sensor signal acquisition and conditioning, efforts to measure small-signal sources associated with biological and chemical sensing applications can result in errors.

VIDEO EDAC Inline Plug & Socket Waterproof Connectors

This video is a "how to" on burning a stump with a quick and efficient method. The key is a steady heat applied as low on a stump as you can get it. We achieved this by cutting into it with a chainsaw.

REFERENCE DESIGN DEV-13664: SAMD21 Mini Breakout

The SAMD21 Mini Breakout is a Pro Mini-sized breakout for the Atmel ATSAMD21G18, a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M0+ processor with 256 KB flash, 32 KB SRAM, and an operating speed of up to 48 MHz.

ARTICLE The Fundamentals of RF Power Dividers and Combiners

Often, designers need to direct these signals to more than a single destination or to combine multiple signals.

VIDEO Honeywell HGuide n580 Inertial Navigation System Survives Extreme Heat

Designed to withstand some of the toughest environments and applications, we put our HGuide n580 inertial measurement under a series of tests to see if it would withstand extreme heat conditions.

REFERENCE DESIGN STEVAL-LLL006V1: 700 mA @ 110 V Max, 90 ~ 300 VAC in, with 6LoWPAN Mesh Network

The STEVAL-LLL006V1 board is designed to help you evaluate high power LED lighting solutions with comprehensive power management and wireless connectivity.

ARTICLE How to Quickly Start Low-Power Wireless IoT Sensing with LPWAN RF Modules

Rather than design their own wireless interface from scratch and incur the cost, designers can instead turn to off-the-shelf modules for a range of relatively new low-power, wide-area networks.

VIDEO setP Demo: How to Prevent USB Type-C plugs From Overheating

Littelfuse's setP temperature indicator helps protect USB Type-C plugs from overheating due to resistive faults from power line to ground. It has been designed to the unique specifications of USB Type-C.

REFERENCE DESIGN DEV-11113: Arduino Pro Mini 328 5 V/16 MHz

This is a 5 V Arduino running the 16 MHz bootloader. Arduino Pro Mini does not come with connectors populated so that you can solder in any connector or wire with any orientation you need.
