The MCP120 is a microcontroller voltage supervisory circuit with open drain output. This voltage supervisory device is designed to hold a microcontroller in reset until the supply voltage has reached ...

It is sometimes necessary for a microcontroller to generate a pulse whose voltage is higher than the power-supply voltage of the microcontroller. The circuit in Figure 1 allows you to generate 14V ...

Until recently, a very common problem faced by electronic circuit designers was the difference in supply voltage standards between microcontrollers (e.g. 3.3 V) and peripheral ICs (e.g. 5 V). In order ...

Voltage comparators began appearing in single-chip microcontrollers (MCUs) in the late 1990s. At the time, the change was viewed as a simple cost reduction. Comparators required less silicon, while ...

Infineon has come out with a sensing and balancing IC for Hybrid and EV car batteries. It supports up to five external temperature sensors, provides an integrated cell balancing function and uses an ...

This circuit solved a problem encountered in developing a portable device with an ARM Cortex-M0 processor. The power supply consisted of two AA batteries (2 × 1.5 V), and I needed to signal the user ...
