The portable power supply integrates power storage, voltage boosting and charging management. It consists of input charging control circuit, discharge control circuit, battery power detection and display circuit, charging indication circuit, battery protection circuit and main control MCU. The mobile power supply circuit uses Renesas R7F0C809 microcontroller as the main control chip.
Continuous-Conduction-Mode (CCM) Totem-pole power factor correction (PFC) is a simple but efficient power converter. To achieve 99% efficiency, there are many design details that need to be taken into account. The PMP20873 reference design uses TI’s 600VGaN power stage, LMG3410, and TI’s UCD3138 digital controller. The design overview provides more details on the CCM Totem-Pole topology operation, gives the detail design considerations of the circuit, and provides magnetics and firmware control design considerations. This converter design operates at 100KHz. A soft start at AC line crossover minimizes current spike and lowers THD. The PFC Firmware measures AC current and PFC output voltage in real-time and predicts the dead time needed for the switch node to complete a full swing. The adaptive dead time control effectively minimizes both switching loss and GaN FET body diode conduction loss. A GUI is available to support parameter setting and control loop tuning.
There are many I/O methods that simulate UART, SPI, and I2C protocols, but there are very few that simulate CAN protocols. The CANT introduced today is a CAN bus simulation implementation. The original project was demonstrated on the ST Micro Nucleo-H743ZI board. The author recently launched a C and Python package - canhack, which facilitates porting to various chips without CAN.
The TIDEP-0092 reference design provides a foundation for short-range radar (SRR) applications using the AWR1642 evaluation module (EVM). This design allows the estimation and tracking of the position (in the azimuthal plane) and velocity of objects in its field of view up to 80 m, travelling as fast as 90kmph. The AWR1642 is configured to be a multi-mode radar, meaning that, while it tracks objects at 80m, it can also generate a rich point cloud of objects at 20m, so that both cars at a distance, and smaller obstacles close-by can be detected.

Wearable devices require advanced power management to keep batteries running for extended periods of time while enabling always-on functionality. In addition, the device needs to use small rechargeable batteries and support a small form factor design. This application note shows how to implement a scalable power management solution for wearable devices that can be customized for activity monitors or smart watches. This design features a Li-ion battery charger and low quiescent current (Iq) DC/DC buck and boost converters for PMOLED displays, a boost converter for heart rate monitors (HRM) and a second Configured with low Iq DC/DC buck, it provides wireless charging input and highly configurable battery management solution.
The GPS reference design is an evaluation kit designed to demonstrate the essential features of an ultra-low power GPS (global positioning system) receiver, as well as serving as a reference design to illustrate how to implement such a receiver rapidly. The reference design uses the MAX2769C L1-band GNSS RF front end IC (RFIC) from Maxim Integrated, and the ultra-low power GPS baseband processing firmware provided by Baseband Technologies Inc. (BTI) that runs on a MAX32632 microcontroller unit (MCU).
This is a simple USB sniffer based on the Raspberry Pi RP2040. It supports low speed and full speed modes. The firmware presents itself as a virtual COM port (VCP), so no additional software is required and it is compatible with all operating systems.
The icebreaker project is a very nice and handy little board. But it has a small flaw, the ice40 FPGA it uses is very simple, and it's generally fun to see people doing exciting projects with 5k LUTs. Sometimes it's convenient to have some extra space available when experimenting.
Interleaved Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) Totem Pole (TTPL) Bridgeless Power Factor Correction (PFC) using high-bandgap GaN devices is an attractive power topology due to its high power efficiency and reduced size. This design illustrates the use of a C2000™ MCU and LMG3410 GaN FET module to control this power stage. To improve efficiency, this design uses adaptive dead time and phase shedding methods. Nonlinear voltage compensators are designed to reduce overshoot and undershoot during transients. This design chooses a software phase locked loop (SPLL) based approach to accurately drive the totem pole bridge. The hardware and software used in this design help reduce your time to market.
