Operating a stepper motor using a fixed (constant) voltage supply results in poor torque at high speeds. Operating a stepper motor using a fixed (constant) voltage supply results in poor torque at ...
The LED driver automatically adjusts the output voltage to keep the output current constant and therefore the light output constant. This works with a single LED or with a chain of string of LEDs ...
Download this article in PDF format. High-brightness visible-light LEDs (VLEDs) require a constant-current source. This simple, RFI-free circuit takes advantage of the normally-on properties of the ...
Linear Technology’s LT3092 is a 0.5- to 200-mA, twoterminal, low-temperature-coefficient, constant-current- source IC. Conceptually, it’s simple, but there has never been an IC like it. Linear ...
It isn’t unusual to expect a precisely regulated voltage in an electronic project, but what about times when you need a precise current? Over on EDN, prolific [Stephen Woodward] explains how to use a ...

Many embedded systems require a stable, low-noise DC reference. This reference can be a stable current or voltage source. These references are used in many ways. Some typical uses are listed as ...
This is the first of a two-part series on the processes used to find the short circuit current duties of circuit breakers and fuses. In Part 1, we’ll use a simplified power system to illustrate the ...
