Accelerate your electric mask design
Wearing an electric mask, also known as an E-mask or digital mask, can increase your comfort level compared to disposable or N95 masks. An electric mask is similar to a central ventilation system: a fan inside the mask allows users to inhale the outside air, which enters the mask after being filtered through a filter element. This design helps combat...

Stay ahead of the energy storage and solar game with bidirectional PFC and hybrid inverter solutions
Now coming out of its infancy, the residential energy storage market is on the brink of explosive growth. In the U.S. alone, this market has had 232% year-on-year growth since the first quarter of 2018, with behind-the-meter storage making up 46% of deployments in the first quarter of 2019. Today, the residential energy storage sector is comparatively...

How RS-485 transceivers with OOK modulation simplify power line communication in building automation systems
As I write this article, the Texas summer is in full swing, with temperatures reaching 95°F (32°C). I feel quite comfortable, however, thanks to my air conditioner. Sometimes it seems like a modern miracle; a simple push of a button on the thermostat and the room quickly and quietly takes on a more temperate climate. All the while, my outdoor...

3 big benefits of small cells
We’ve all experienced the inconvenience of a dead spot. Macro remote radio units (RRUs), also known as macro cells, are typically deployed in a centralized location to cover dense urban areas. As the number of people using RRUs grows beyond capacity, the system’s signal overloads and weakens. To increase the capacity of the network in high...

How to use Hall-effect current sensors in telecom rectifiers and server PSUs
Power-factor correction (PFC) and inverters in telecom rectifiers and server power-supply units (PSUs) need to be able to sense the current signal from the high-voltage side for the controller at the low-voltage side. To do so, they use an isolated current sensor. There are many choices for isolated current sensing like current transformers (CTs), isolated...

How to design an infrared thermometer quickly
Monitoring our body temperature is essential for us to stay healthy. An infrared thermometer can measure temperature without contact, which can help ease the spread of a contact infection. In this article, I’ll break down the various blocks in a system diagram of an infrared thermometer. The MSP430™ microcontroller (MCU) is a 16-bit ultra...
