This 100 W reference design highlights the excellent power quality and high frequency performance of the half-bridge (HB) driver using the ICL5102 with the economical CoolMOS™ P7 series. The design takes full advantage of the applicable frequency range of the HB driver to create Highly compact LCC transformer. This transformer integrates the series inductance of the LCC resonant tank. Relying on this high power density transformer design, the high frequency operation capability can drive system cost and size reduction.

The MAXREFDES1044 is a reference design for the MAX30101 and several other Maxim® products that demonstrates how a small size, low cost, low power, high accuracy heart-rate monitor can be easily implemented. This design can monitor heart rate using red, infrared (IR), or green LEDs.
The MAXREFDES171# is a complete, high-accuracy, IO-Link distance sensor reference design that provides accurate ranging up to 4m. Built in an industrial form factor, the design makes use of a commercially available time-of-flight (ToF), laser-ranging sensor.
The MAXREFDES103# is a wrist-worn wearable form factor that demonstrates the high sensitivity and algorithm processing functions for health-sensing applications. This health sensor band platform includes an enclosure and a biometric sensor hub with an embedded heart-rate, SpO2 algorithm (the MAX32664C) which processes PPG signals from the analog-front-end (AFE) sensor (the MAX86141). Algorithm output and raw data can be streamed through Bluetooth® technology to an Android® app or PC GUI for demonstration, evaluation, and customized development.
The design is a custom 3d model from Sensirion. Sensirion provides a 3d model, but it has very few features.
The EPC901 is a 1024x1 CCD sensor capable of providing 50MHz pixel output. It outputs analog voltage from the CCD element. The author paired it with a 50MSps ADC on a SYZYGY board. The datasheet says it can run up to 50k fps. External I/O is provided via optocouplers to facilitate connection to external trigger sources such as motion controllers. This board will assist in conducting experiments on the new PnP platform. Objects can be moved through the line scanner to capture the position of the photo.
The MAXREFDES1161# is a small form factor, high accuracy, 2-wire 4mA to 20mA transmitter which integrates all functional and protection blocks in a small 1.0in x 0.6in dual-row header footprint that is compatible with breadboards and off-the-shelf peripheral expansion boards.
BRKOUT-FXLN83xxQ kit includesBreakout board for the FXLN83xxQ acceleration sensor series.
The MAXREFDES164# IO-Link® temp sensor reference design uses the MAX14828 IO-Link device transceiver and supports the TMG TE IO-Link or TEConcept IO-Link stack.
A Russian Github master has open sourced a DIY lidar project, from PCB to host computer software.
The meiji-led-ring is a compact light source that can be mounted on the front of a Meiji microscope. The illuminator uses 24 LEDs along with some high frequency boost drivers to avoid flickering when shooting. The device is powered by the USB-C port. A small ATSAML10 microcontroller is used to control the brightness of the LED driver. The user controls a series of touch sensors from the edge of the PCB.
SYZYGY is an FPGA extension standard for medium to high speed interfaces. This design is a breakout board for connecting dual Atto320 LWIR sensors. Designed to mate with existing sensor breakout boards that provide FFC connectivity.
Thermocouple temperature measurement system with current consumption less than 500 μA
The MAXREFDES1207 is a reference design for wearable application based on a total Maxim® solution which includes the MAX32660, MAX30112, MAX77651B, and MAX40005. This solution demonstrates how a small size, low cost, low power, high accuracy heart-rate (HR) monitor can be easily implemented. This design can monitor heart rate using two green LEDs.
The led-panel originated from the author's desire to use a donated roll of white LEDs to break out 48 LEDs on a compact board. Its output power should reach about 4W. It has no controller and is purely for testing a set of LEDs to see if they would be suitable for some form of lighting attached to a gooseneck.
