To drive a MOSFET requires more than merely a logic level output, there’s a requirement to charge the device’s gate which necessitates a suitable buffer amplifier. A variety of different approaches ...
This simple LED driver circuit allows us to drive up to seven LEDs by using a single NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) AA cell. The circuit produces voltage pulses at a much higher level than the input ...
LEDs find their way into applications that range from high-end video displays to low-end lighting applications. Designers often need only some of the functions of a dedicated LED driver but can’t ...
Semtech has introduced an analogue timer chip that runs from 0.9V, but can drive LEDs at over 3V. Called SX8122, to the timer it adds: a simple battery charger, a boost converter, and a power-down ...
