Low-cost, 8-bit, single-chip microcontrollers are stingy when it comes to on-chip PWM (pulse-width-modulation) resources. The use of a PWM resource often forces a designer to sacrifice a ...

LCD circuits often require a –10V voltage at 2 to 15 mA to bias a graphics-LCD-driver IC. You can usually accomplish this task with an external charge-pump IC, such as Maxim’s ICL7660, but that ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Sometimes a design needs more DACs than the mixed-signal microcontroller has available. An easy solution is to put in a ...

Pulse width modulation is a form of signal communication that transposes a signal from analog to digital form. Analog signals with changing amplitude and frequency pass through a comparator and are ...
