Image source Amazon When it comes to serial communication, usually, the attention is on data transmission. How is data transmitted from one device to another? And which form of data transmission is the best? Here is where the argument of RS232 vs DB9 comes in. Both are communication standards used for data transfer. The main…
CR2430 and CR2450 are two popular button/coin batteries that are used in a wide range of applications. Just by looking at them, you can easily assume that they are similar in every different aspect. In fact, you can easily conclude that CR2430 is interchangeable with CR2450. But in reality, there are some glaring differences that…
When you have a variety of devices that run on different voltages, what is the best way of managing their power? In most applications, a voltage regulator is used to ensure that each device or component in a circuit gets the required amount of voltage. And this is where the significance of LM2596 comes in.…
Image source Wiki Battery replacement is an issue that comes up often. Let’s say you are using a 1616 battery but it is no longer easily available when you need it. You will have to get a perfect replacement. And one of the possible replacements is 1620. Will the replacement work perfectly? Other than fitting…
image source Wiki When it comes to button or coin batteries, there is a plethora of options that you can explore. Like other batteries, you probably looking for the reliability, performance among many other features. And this is where SR621SW battery comes in. What is it and how do you rate it in terms of…
Image source Components101 When it comes to switching and amplification operations, there are various electronic components that you will look out for. One of them is the transistor. But again,there are various types of transistors designed for this job. One of them is the S8050 transistor. What is it and should I consider buying it?…
Image source Rusty This guide will provide step-by-step instructions on how to reset the coolant temperature sensor on your vehicle. It is important to reset the sensor after any repairs or maintenance have been done on the cooling system. Resetting the sensor will ensure that the engine is running at its optimal temperature, which can…
In-memory computing image source: TechDemand The future of computing is here. In-memory computing (IMC) is an emerging technology that enables organizations to store and process large amounts of data in real-time. IMC allows data to be stored and processed directly in the computer’s main memory, instead of in a traditional disk-based database. This technology is becoming…
The PC817 optocoupler is an electronic component that consists of a light-emitting diode (LED) and a phototransistor. It is used to isolate one electrical circuit from another, while still allowing the two circuits to communicate. The PC817 optocoupler is typically used when galvanic isolation is required, such as when connecting digital signal lines between two…
Image source Quartz The 74LS32 is a Quad 2-input OR Gate integrated circuit. It is a logic gate that uses two or more inputs and produces one output. The purpose of the 74LS32 is to combine two or more inputs into one single output. The output is only high when one or more of the…
