Environments rich in ionizing radiation create a particularly difficult functional challenge for electronic components. Spacecraft, nuclear reactors, particle accelerators, and hardened military equipment (to name a few examples) demand that their electrical systems operate correctly, even in the presence of high energy particles, cosmic rays, X-rays, and the like. Such radiation adversely affects electronics in […]

HP1800 PWM phase-doubler turns 1 tri-state PWM input to four 180° interleaved complementary outputs. It enables 90–92% efficient single-stage 48V-to-1V AI PoL conversion (vs ~86% two-stage), cutting PCB area 75% and parts 40%. It supports legacy controllers, programmable dead-time, anti-shoot-through logic, 200kHz–2MHz switching to lower data-center power cost.

So many people are looking to set up homelabs and also looking to automate their home. But actual examples are not so easy to find. Bruno Rocha writes about his home network and home automation setup is laid out and has changed over time. I’m very satisfied with my hardware and setup choices. As I […]

John Goerzen writes on The Changelog that 1981 was a different time for computing. It was expensive (both hardware and software), and it was far from a given that machines from one vendor would be able to talk to those from another. In fact, Columbia University had just such a problem, so in 1981, Frank […]

Manfred Mornhinweg bought a Chinese J306β Geiger-Müller counter tube, the glass version, which is rated to give 88 counts per minute at average background radiation, or 8 counts per second at a radiation intensity of 1µSv/h. This tube is nearly 20cm long, and about 18mm in diameter. I took quite some time to decide whether […]

sectorforth is a 16-bit x86 Forth that fits in a 512-byte boot sector. Inspiration to write sectorforth came from a 1996 Usenet thread (in particular, Bernd Paysan’s first post on the thread). sectorforth contains only the eight primitives outlined in the Usenet post above, five variables for manipulating internal state, and two I/O primitives. With […]

RideLinkBLE is an Arduino ESP32 BLE library for controlling and reading telemetry from compatible e-bike controllers by ToasterForSale. RideLinkBLE requires an ESP32-family board with Bluetooth Low Energy support. Classic AVR-based Arduino Uno, Nano, and Mega boards cannot run this library without separate BLE hardware and a different BLE implementation. Install the Espressif ESP32 board package, […]
