    Optocoupler for high frequency

    Dear Readers, I got this PS2501 optocoupler datasheet at here. In the image shown, the rise time and fall time is microseconds and I am afraid it's not suited for my needs as it will produce some switching losses in H-bridge circuit running at 100kHz minimum. Are there any very-high speed...

    NE 555 (On , Off, ON) when subjected to different input voltage

    Hi readers, :) I found this at Click here This is an example of a disconnect and reconnect circuit using NE555. This means that the state of load will be (High, then, Low, them High). However, when I simulated using LT Spice it just give me (Low and High only). Does anyone know how to make the...

    Produce an oscillating Dc wave

    Hi People :), The reason why I will be needing an oscillating dc waveform is because I need it to be fed into the input of a comparator to produce high frequency square wave dc signal. I built this Wein Bridge Oscillator and it works fine to produce quite a high frequency sine wave. However, I...

    Top Level Design help for a 'switching array'

    Hello, I was hoping to get some help/advice on a personal project I'm working on that requires quite a bit more electronic hardware involvement than I'm used to. I can manage code, computers, microcontrollers etc fine but I'm not very well educated in general electronic hardware at all besides...

    Generate Complementary PWM with dead time.

    I have a similar question to click here. However, in my case i am using ne 555 for logic gate inverter :). I have generated the complementary PWM and it works totally fine. My question is how to add a dead time between the pulses. From click here, people suggests to use an RC network, how do I...

    High current Step-down converter efficiency problem

    Hi People:), I am trying to build a synchronous step-down converter but my LT spice simulation shows poor efficiency. The picture above is at Here . I have attached my LT spice below for reference. May I know if this is the right way or anyone can correct my LT spice file and send it in the...

    Lithium ion charged at 5V 2A, why internal resistance is not 2.5 Ohms?

    Lithium ion cell are charged at 5V and 2A max. Following Ohm's Law, 5V/2A would mean at least a 2.5 Ohm internal resistance of battery. However, Lithium ion internal resistance is only about 0.28 Ohms. How is that possible :)?

    Dual supply H-Bridge driver using transistors wouldn't work

    I'm trying to make a biphasic functional electrical stimulator using the circuits in this paper. But I modified it by using MPSA BJT transistors instead of MOSFET. I'm in the middle of developing a Multisim simulation for it. The boost converter worked fine and could climb up/down to around +-40...

    Buck Converter (Wide range of Input Voltage to Output a fixed Voltage)

    Hi People :), This is a step up dc to dc converter. This schematic inputs a 15V and outputs a 22V DC. However, I want the input range to be between 3V to 50V and all gives the same constant 22V DC output current. How can this be done with UC 3845. I have attached the schematics below and spice...

    Battery Charging Circuit efficiency

    Hi readers:), Click here . This link refers to making a lithium-ion battery charger using a BC 547. Question: How efficient is this circuit in (%) that is useful output power/ input power to charge a battery? I am planning to build a 4.2V charger but with a much higher ampere limit by...

    High Voltage PMOS recommendation

    Hi readers, is there a P-channel Mosfet with Vds of -400V but has very low Rds(On) because I want an efficient mosfet ? I a planning to power a 400V device and its negative terminal must be connected to ground (That's the reason why i use PMOS and not NMOS). I find a lot of NMOS that can...

    Will voltage across transformer drop when charge a lithium ion battery?

    If I have a 4W transformer that has high inductance, thick windings, (4V ,1 A) and converted to DC via a rectifier, in order to charge a lithium ion battery (low internal resistance) , will the output will still be slightly less than 4V or will it be very low (close to 0 which makes it...

    Maintain constant voltage across a variable load (op-amp)

    Hi readers :), Vin is fed with the PWM signal coming from an op-amp to be amplified and fed into the load R1 (1 Ohms). The purpose I design this is I want the voltage source to be a constant 5V which is independent of the load (1 Ohms or 100 Ohms). So basically, this circuit has an op-amp which...

    How to use PMOS mosfet?

    Hi readers, is this the correct way to power a PMOS mosfet? I am unfamiliar with PMOS but quite familiar with NMOS. Question: How to use PMOS to power a 10 Ohm Load? Thank you I attached LT Spice files below. Help me understand by attaching or posting a new schematic :) Thank you and have a nice...

    Regulate voltage using op amp

    Hi readers, I am doing an Op Amp voltage regulation of voltage drop across load. As you can see from diagram, I have a fluctuating_Vin (0V to 50V) and I want the voltage drop at load (100 Ohms) to be the same (14V) at all times no matter whether input voltage is 20V or 30V or 50V? Note: I...

    Convert triangle wave to sine wave.

    Hi readers, the IN node has triangular wave converted from square wave pulse. This Op-Amp acts as integrator. However, when I attach the same integrator circuit to convert this triangular wave (IN) to sine wave, the Output (OUT) I got is still quite triangular and not quite a good sine wave...

    Amplify Flip Flop signal from NE 555 timer using transistors

    Above is the graph across R7 (Load). Hi readers, Flip Flop with Ne555 timer means turning on an led and another one off, as shown in picture, and this alternate on and off pattern continues. This video can be found at Click Here . I have succeeded in amplifying one of the 2 signal as shown in...

    PNP transistor to amplify square wave signal received at its base

    Above is the load power Hi People, I created this npn transistor circuit and it works fine. So basically, it receives this square wave impulse (0 to 2V) and send it to the 10 Ohm(Load) to be amplified to become (0 to 10V). Question: How to simulate the same way (Load Power Output should be...

    Current direction using transistors

    Hi readers, I am trying to simulate current flow in both direction of the load by using 4 relays or transistors. For example, in this circuit, the load will have left current flow when 2 of the switch or transistors are on and 2 of the switch are off. The opposite way applies too if 2 of the...
