From circuit simulation to embedded firmware testing and PCB design, Proteus lets you see how hardware and code work together ...

High power LED lighting is harder than it looks. Power, dimming, control, and communication collide in one design.

Part 1 of this three-part series introduced the technical and engineering steps necessary to design an LED display system from individual LED lamps. Part 2 provided the remaining steps needed to ...

This reference design presents Z8 Encore! XP microcontroller used as a LED flashlight controller. The reference design uses Zilog’s Z8F082A microcontroller to control the power and functional modes of ...

A LED light pipe is an optical fiber or a solid transparent plastic rod for transmitting light from an LED mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB) to the user interface. Light pipes transmit up to 80 ...

A structured design review process ensures alignment across teams.

Eventually, almost every EE must design a PCB, which isn’t something that’s taught in school. Yet engineers, technicians, and even novice PCB designers can create high-quality PCBs for any and every ...
