Tilt measurement using a single axis accelerometer
A single axis accelerometer is a device that measures acceleration in one direction. It is typically used to measure acceleration along a single axis, such as up and down or left and right. Output of an accelerometer An accelerometer measures acceleration. It can sense both static and dynamic forces of…
Photodiode biasing (Photoconductive or Photovoltaic mode)
A photodiode is a type of semiconductor device that converts light into an electrical current. It can be used with or without a reverse bias applied. Reverse biasing a photodiode is accomplished by putting the cathode at a greater electric potential than the anode. In other words, a negative voltage…
SPI Daisy Chain Example for L6470
The L6470 is a fully integrated motor driver. It provides a complete standalone solution for stepper motor applications. The L6470 is controlled by a host microcontroller (MCU) through a fast 8-bit serial peripheral interface (SPI). Multiple L6470 drivers can be connected in a daisy chain configuration. Most likely, if you…
High voltage current sense circuit
High-side current sensing is used in a wide range of applications. Usually, it is used for overcurrent protection in power management circuits. On the market, there are many off-the-shelf operational amplifiers that can be used to measure current on the high-side power bus. However, a problem occurs when current needs…
