.. little, and ripple is increased. 100 uF is a good 'general purpose' value, but if the required current is less than 10 mA, the caps can be reduced. I don't recommend anything less than 33 uF though, because the 555 timer doesn't ...
Designing an analog circuit can be a frustrating experience, as noted by Nick Cornford in his Design Idea (DI), “DIY RTD for a DMM” ( Ref. 1 ). With a fortnight’s struggle, I completed the design of 4 mA to 20 mA, two-wire ...
.. Automatic low-power sleep mode when input supply voltage is removed Status Indication for LEDs or µP Interface C/10 charge termination Automatic recharge Battery temperature sensing Circuit diagram I have read the datasheet, and it ...
.. required for 1 lsb (0.4%) PWM ripple attenuation is where N is number of PWM bits, and F PWM is the PWM frequency (10 kHz illustrated). Then, to avoid messing with U1’s designed loop gain, possibly reducing stability, This ...
.. PWM with I S = D/R1 where D equals the 0 to 1 (0% to 100%) PWM duty factor: as D = 0 to 1 The 8-bit PWM resolution and 10-kHz frequency are assumed. The R2C1 single-pole ripple filter has a time constant of approximately 64x the PWM period ...
.. 220 µV (370 µV with a 3.0-V supply.) The filter settles to much less than that 12-bit ½ LSB voltage in 10 ms and has a peak (not peak-peak) ripple of less than 50 µV. R4 and R5 should be chosen so that the intended ...
.. otherwise be up to 200 mV at the output of A4. C1, at 100n, is enough to hold A1 stable during calibration, but it is C2 10 µF that defines the low 3-dB point of A1’s circuit, once allowance has been made for the reduction in its ...

.. output stage is added. Please note that the output is not short-circuit proof. If preferred, a simple 1 kΩ to 10 kΩ resistor can be added in series with the output. With the current resistor values in the circuit, a ...
.. The trigger input is biased above the trip point by divider R1 R2. Triggering pulses pass through a small capacitor, C1 (2-10 pF), in order to prevent saturation of the comparator (see 8.3.1 of the datasheet). The maximum operating frequency ...
