Redmond, Wash.&#151 RPM Systems Corp. has launched its MPQ-AVR, a four-port, in-circuit programmer for Atmel AVR microcontrollers. The system features on-board flash storage of program images, and ...

It’s not that breadboarding AVR circuits is difficult. But you have to admit that it takes some time to set everything up. We don’t label the top of our DIP chips so that you know what each pin does ...

A new mid range in-circuit debugger and programmer has been unveiled by Atmel. The JTAGICE3 supports all Atmel AVR 8 and 32bit mcus and is said to be smaller, faster, and more robust than the previous ...

Voltage regulator IC’s, with 3 pins, from LM7805 and LM7812 series are excellent for usage in voltage regulator circuits. If you need higher currents, up to 3 A, you must add a complementary ...

In a fashion similar to using stacked Zeners for voltage regulation, this LED circuit cleverly combines voltage reference and voltage indication. Fig 1. This voltage regulator circuit (a) uses green ...

QUESTION: There are so many different voltage regulators on the market these days. How do I pick one that will be good for my circuit? ANSWER: Wow, this is a tough question, but also a good one. I’ll ...
