Maintaining the temperature in Infrastructures is important because it affects the fundamental equipment, particularly servers. If the temperature is not maintained correctly, computers get heated. So unexpected changes in humidity & temperature can meet overheating which may result in larger damages & financial failures. This demonstrates how significant correct cooling is in avoiding sudden downtime. To overcome this issue, temperature and humidity sensors are invented to measure both … [Read more...]
LP2985 IC : PinOut, Features, Specifications, Circuit, Working, Datasheet & Its Applications
A voltage regulator is an IC, used to provide a fixed and stable output voltage apart from a change within the input voltage or load. Similarly, a low-dropout regulator is a DC linear voltage regulator that works even when the voltage supply is extremely close to the o/p voltage. The benefits of an LDO regulator compared to another voltage regulator mainly include smaller device size, lack of switching noise, better design simplicity, etc. So the LDO voltage regulator like LP2985 from Texas … [Read more...]
KY-008 Laser Module : PinOut, Features, Specifications, Interfacing, Working, Datasheet & Its Applications
The laser diode (diode laser) is a small semiconductor diode that emits radiation physically. This diode is directly pumped with an electrical current which creates lasing conditions at the junction of the diode. So they can change electrical energy directly into light. Laser diodes contain SH (single heterojunction), DH (double heterojunction), and QW (quantum well) laser diodes. These diodes manufacture laser modules manufactured by companies like Osram, Mitsubishi, Nichia, Sony, etc. So the … [Read more...]
LP2950 IC : PinOut, Features, Specifications, Circuit, Working, Datasheet & Its Applications
A micro-power voltage regulator is an integrated circuit frequently available in small packages appropriate for compact designs. These ICs provide a constant output voltage while drawing minimum power. So it is perfect for battery-powered devices wherever low current consumption is essential. This voltage regulator keeps a constant output voltage even whenever the input voltage is close to the preferred output voltage. This voltage regulator is highly efficient and works at very low power … [Read more...]
KY-023 Joystick Module : PinOut, Features, Specifications, Types, Interfacing & Its Applications
The first ‘Joystick technology’ was introduced in the early 20th century for use in aircraft. So this was patented by Ralph Baer in 1944 who invented the first video game console. So joysticks were used widely in video games in the years 1970s & 1980s. Joysticks are used as controlled devices in elevators & aircraft ailerons. So these are first used on the Bleriot VIII aircraft of Louis Bleriot in combination with a foot-controlled rudder bar on the tail for the yaw control surface. This … [Read more...]
MCP73831 IC : PinOut, Features, Specifications, Circuit, Working & Its Applications
Li-ion battery charger is an integrated circuit that regulates battery charging voltage and current used in portable devices like; laptops, tablets & cell phones. Compared to other battery charger ICs, Li-ion batteries contain the highest energy densities, providing a high voltage per cell to tolerate high currents. Additionally, Li-ion batteries do not include a memory effect, so they do not consider a low charge ability if they are completely charged before depleting. But, Li-ion batteries … [Read more...]
Collision Sensor : PinOut, Features, Specifications, Interfacing, Working & Its Applications
Collision or collision detection sensors play a significant role in different industries for improving security & operational efficiency. These types of sensors have an important function to notice near obstacles and objects to trigger a response to avoid accidents or collisions. In addition, they possess high sensitivity, allowing effective detection of even little or less contrast objects. So these are identified due to their rapid response times, rendering them appropriate for fast-paced … [Read more...]
