- Tuning a Quadrature Encoder by EarThe human ear is very good at detecting noise or missing cycles in a waveform, and since we have two ears, we can monitor two signals at once. I recently repaired an older lab instrument containing a quadrature encoder made with an incandescent lamp, a slotted disc, and two...06-01-2022
- Informed Analysis Picks Better 555 Timer To Drive Power MOSFETThe original bipolar 555 timer, the NE555, is excellent for driving a power MOSFET’s gate. Newer CMOS versions such as the 7555, LMC555, and TLC555 use less power, but they have trouble sourcing enough current to drive a gate well and can even be damaged by load...22-02-2021
