Even robotic systems occasionally need a cooling fan. When they do, the cooling circuit must be an intelligent one that makes minimal demands on power consumption and space. The circuit described here ...

[Les] from [Les’ Lab] has designed a driver for laser diodes up to 10 watts, and decided to show us how it operates, tells us what we should keep in mind when designing such a driver, and talks about ...

Several years ago, Paul Rako, in collaboration with the late, great Bob Pease, wrote a terrific article about the finer theoretical and practical points of electromagnetic solenoid-driver circuits. 1 ...

This application note presents a reference design for a rear combination lamp (RCL) LED driver in a 3-series, 3-parallel (3S3P) configuration. Using the MAX16823 linear driver and external BJTs, this ...

This application note is intended for engineers designing an isolated AC-DC LED driver using the LinkSwitch-PH family of devices. It provides guidelines to enable an engineer to quickly select key ...
