Some registers on MSP430 devices (and I assume some non-TI chips, but I mostly know MSP430s) have "passwords" that reset the device if software writes to the register without the right ...

My understanding is that in the US (and Canada?) residential units receive split-phase 120V/240V power meaning the voltage between two phases is 2x the line-to-neutral voltage. Here in Europe ...

As you might know, it is hard to get components these days. That's why we engineers have to get creative sometimes ;-)
The company I'm working for has a shortage of a Zener-type voltage reference ...

Yesterday morning, I was preparing my tiller pilot (auto pilot for small boats) but it sounded like something was loose inside. When I opened it up, I found a damaged rubber sealing and the piece in ...

I've set up a power supply using a MAX632 DC/DC Boost converter to bring up voltage from a small 4.5V battery, then I'm using a LM2940CT-5.0 linear regulator to bring it back to 5V, which the voltage ...

I am currently designing a PCB containing an ATmegaS128 with the CQFP64 package (see picture below and page 460 of its datasheet), but I do not know how it can be soldered. Can the golden frame and ...

I am currently designing my first PCB to be manufactured by a fab (I am using JLCPCB). The base material that JLCPCB offers is FR-4 TG130.
In that design, I have a few wires that would need to be hand-...

So this seem like a simple question, but I'm trying to flip components in the schematic editor. If I select a component then use the keyboard shortcut X or Y, it brings up a menu and does not slip the ...

As a novice electronics hobbyist, I have heard these terms and more being thrown around everywhere. At its root, I understand that they are all based on communication between devices, computers, ...

I know 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200 and 1.8432 Mbaud, but no others. Why are these values used, and is it simply doubling each time or is there something more complex going on (for example, 38400 ...

What is the extra, 5th, pin on micro usb 2.0 adapters for?
Here is an image with the different connectors. Most of them have 5 pins, but the A-type host only has four.

I'm just trying out Arduino Uno for the first time with 2 blinking LEDs on a breadboard. All the tutorials on the Internet seem to use a resistor. I do know the function of resistors, but does it ...

I have recently purchased an IKEA LED bulb with G9 fittings, to replace a halogen one. This one.
The bulb is installed in a lamp with 3 other halogen G9s in a 3 + 1 configuration with a 3-state ...

What is the reverse recovery time in a diode?
|
Can you answer these questions?

'"a complementary PWM can be used, which will also reduce the power dissipation in the devices".
That means using Complementary PWM makes the MOSFET cooler. However, in my program, using ...

I'm trying to reverse engineer the protocol that an old home alarm system uses to communicate with the keypads. Connected via 4 wires:
GND
13.2V
DATA
CLOCK
I've managed to connect the wires to a ...
