Here at Hackaday we really like to feature projects that push the limits of what’s possible, or ones that feature some new and exciting technology that nobody has ever seen before. So what’s so ...

Using a current limiter in boost converters for circuit protection. An easy-to-implement design idea to achieve the desired current limiting. 1. A current limiter is added to a power bank that has an ...

Most readers are probably familiar with two-terminal current-limiting circuits, which have been around for many years. The circuit is very effective for applications where load current is relatively ...

A solar day lamp is a simple, inexpensive device for bringing “daylight” to dark interior spaces whenever the sun is shining. This article provides complete instructions for designing lamps using both ...

• The inductance in a stepper-motor phase winding limits how fast current rises when power is applied. • Series-resistor current limiting needs higher voltages for faster step rates, but higher ...
