Back in the day where the microprocessor was our standard building block, we tended to concentrate on computation and processing of data and not so much on I/O. Simply put there were a lot of things ...

What is a precision analog microcontroller? A precision analog microcontroller combines high-performance analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs) with a single-chip ...

A brushless dc motor needs several voltage levels to control its speed: 0V to stop the motor, 5V to run it at maximum speed, and some voltages between these extremes to run it slower. When you use ...
