.. that the required capacitors are both big and expensive. A second approach would be to increase the LT8362 output by a volt or two and add an LDO regulator to the output. This, however, requires a high-voltage LDO regulator, which ...
.. At this instant, adjust preset VR2 such that Zener diode ZD2 and transistor T9 conduct to drop the collector voltage to 0.7 volt keeping LED2 ‘off.’ If the supply voltage goes below 10.5 volts, the voltage across the load ...
.. In fact, at the price of an extra resistor, it might be possible to improve linearity enough to pick up another half a volt and half an octave on both ends of the pitch range to span 177 Hz to 1410 Hz. See Figure 4 and Figure 5. Figure ...
.. (N-2) T PWM /R 2 , where N is number of PWM bits and T PWM is the PWM period. Since C F will never see more than perhaps a volt, its voltage rating isn’t much of an issue. A cool feature of this simple topology is that, unlike many ...
.. conduct and bypass the transistor if the reverse polarity source-drain differential is ever more than a few tenths of a volt. Figure 4 shows the simplest (not very simple) solution I’ve been able to come up with. Figure 4. Two ...
