Available integrated circuits can let you program a current limit, but they generally involve microcontrollers or data converters (or both). As an alternative, the circuit of Figure 1 lets you program ...

The Motor control ICs of the TDA514x family have been provided with an on-chip current limiter circuit. The current limit value, however, can not be set externally. Therefore the need came-up for an ...

Here at Hackaday we really like to feature projects that push the limits of what’s possible, or ones that feature some new and exciting technology that nobody has ever seen before. So what’s so ...

Linear Technology Corporation announces the LT3065, a high voltage, low noise, low dropout voltage linear regulator offering precision, programmable current limit and a power good flag. The device ...

Hot swapping, the act of inserting and removing circuit boards into an active backplane has been used in telecom servers, USB interfaces, firewire interfaces and CompactPCI applications. [1] By ...
