This reference design presents the motion sensing and LED control features of Z8FS040 ZMOTION microcontroller. It briefly describes the microcontroller and LED driver features, as well as the hardware ...

In a previous article, I discussed LEDs in general and their properties. In this write-up, I want to give some examples of driving LEDs and comparing a few of the most commonly used methods. There is ...

For centuries, there’s been awareness of differences in natural light (sunlight) and artificial light (such as fire), even if the term “color temperature” was not used. Until approximately 60-70 years ...

Most engineers are quite familiar with typical low-power-indicator LEDs, whether they be surface-mount or the classical through-hole packages. All that's needed to use them is a voltage source and a ...
