Part 3: Thermistor SPICE Models Make Sense With Older ICs, but What About a Newer One, Such as the LTC1041? It’s with a somewhat provocative title that we begin the third and last installment in this ...

When the thermistor temperature is below a set value the voltage at pin 2 of the 555 drops below 1/3 of Vcc. This turns on the triac controlled heater and also starts the timing cycle. If the ...

Starting with the sensor, measuring and controlling temperature is an essential building block of process industries. Automatic control in continuous processes uses industrial control systems to ...

Precision temperature control circuits for small thermal loads like oscillator crystals and voltage references tend to be fairly easy to design. This is because simple, well-behaved, linear-output ...

PWM or Pulse Width Modulation has generally been regarded as too complicated for PC fan speed control compared against using rheostats or linear voltage regulators such as the LM317. I present here a ...

CMOS current reference circuits play a critical role in modern integrated circuits by providing a stable and reproducible current source that remains unaffected by variations in supply voltage, ...

Sometimes the best way to learn about a technology is to just build something yourself. That’s what [Dan] did with his DIY optoisolator. The purpose of an optoisolator is to allow two electrical ...
