Battery-operated instrument benefited from auto-power shutdown A handheld, battery-operated “fiber finder” measures the light escaping from an optical fiber when clamped in a V-shaped block under slight pressure. A pair of photodiodes ...

A typical switched-capacitor charge pump requires no inductors, is easy to design, and can double a positive voltage or convert a positive voltage to an equivalent negative voltage. However, in some applications, only a positive supply is ...

Testing the system Testing was done at various sunlight intensities. For any given sunlight intensity, V PV , I PV , V M , I M , etc., are measured. Figure 5 shows the variation of PV power (P PVON ), converter power (P M ), and total power (P TOT ...

The PV-pushback-effect with solar panels can control backup power and provide constant light output. Solar day lamps (SDLs) are made by simply connecting an LED array to a solar photovoltaic (PV) panel. SDLs represent a highly cost-effective way of ...

While an internal, rechargeable lithium battery is usually the best solution for portable kit nowadays, there are still times when using replaceable cells with an external power option, probably from a USB source, is more appropriate. This DI shows ...

Integration of analog circuitry with digital logic often requires the addition of an extra supply rail or two. The excellent PSRR of precision op-amps (typically 100 dB) makes them unfussy about power rail variations. This simplifies power supply ...
