I've always thought that electronics where expensive and hard but after investing some time learning the basics I made this lil 555 timer PCB and I know there are some things that could be better but I'm really proud of my work submitted by /u/Inside-Ad8295 [link] [comments]

There have been numerous circuits published in EDN as design ideas (DI) for the past few months, centering around the “Flip ON Flop OFF” circuit originally published by Stephen Woodward. These are all designed for DC voltages less than 15 V, since this is the maximum power supply voltage of the CMOS ICs that were used in their design.

Wow the engineering world with your unique design: Design Ideas Submission Guide

There are several applications that use 48 VDC as the supply voltage, such as telecom equipment, solar panel controllers, and EV controllers. In general, DC on/off switches are bulky, as there is no current zero-breaking concept as in the case of AC circuits. A DC on/off switch will break the full load current, leading to arcing and contact erosion. Because of this, bulk-sized switches with higher current capacity are employed.

Figure 1’s circuit can flip on and flop off 48 VDC with a tiny push button. D1 is a 5.6-V Zener diode. It is connected to the base of the Q2 transistor. Its emitter voltage becomes around 5 VDC (Vz-Vbe).

ICs U1 and U2 operate with this 5 VDC voltage. When the pushbutton (PB) is pushed once momentarily, a small pulse is generated, which is counted by U1. Its LSB pin becomes HIGH, which is applied to the gate of Q1. Hence, it conducts, and the output gets 48 VDC. For the next push of PB, the LSB pin of U1 goes LOW, and the gate of Q1 becomes LOW, and Q1 stops conducting. This makes the output voltage go to zero. This action repeats for every push.

Figure 1 The flip on, flop off circuit for 48 V. The output gets 48V DC when you push PB once momentarily. For the next push, output becomes 0 V. U1 and U2 operate at 5VDC only. Connect the Vcc pins of U1 and U2 to VDD and the ground pins to VSS, as shown in the above circuit. Use heat sink for Q1 for higher currents.

Since PB encounters current around a milliamp, the low current, sleek PB is sufficient to switch ON or OFF the 48-V supply with high current. With a proper heatsink on Q1, this circuit can switch ON or OFF DC currents up to several amps as per the data sheet of Q1.

Both R1 and C1 are for PB switch debounce. Both R2 and C2 are for the power-on reset of U1.

If galvanic isolation is needed (this may not always be the case), you may connect an ON/OFF switch prior to the input. In this topology, on-load switching is taken care of by the PB-operated circuit, and the ON/OFF switch switches zero current only, so it does not need to be bulky. You can select a switch that passes the required load current. While switching ON, first close the ON/OFF switch and then operate PB to connect. While switching OFF, first push PB to disconnect and operate the ON/OFF switch.

Two diode controllers, the AP74502Q and AP74502HQ from Diodes, provide 80-V reverse battery polarity protection for automotive systems. They also offer load disconnect to guard against overvoltage and undervoltage conditions. Compatible with 12-V, 24-V, and emerging 48-V battery systems—including those in hybrid and electric vehicles—the devices are well-suited for ADAS, body control modules, infotainment, and exterior lighting.

The AEC-Q100 qualified controllers differ in peak gate source current. The AP74502Q handles 60 µA (typical), enabling smooth startup with inherent inrush current control—useful in applications where limiting surge current is critical. By comparison, the AP74502HQ withstands a higher 11-mA peak, allowing quicker MOSFET turn-on with a 1-µs typical response.

Both controllers support input voltages as low as 3.2 V for reliable operation during cold crank conditions and provide a peak gate turn-off sink current of 2.3 A for fast MOSFET switching during voltage events. With the charge pump enabled, their quiescent current is 62 µA, dropping to 1 µA when disabled, minimizing power consumption and battery drain.

Housed in SOT28 packages, the AP74502Q and AP74502HQ cost $0.27 each in 1000-unit quantities.

Couple of years ago I designed the STM32 Nucleo F303 based control boxes, for students to learn C coding on. Multiple of my designs replaced very old, outdated designs, originally made in 2001-2002. I was looking for the ways to improve it, and also, my colleague is not that willing to learn of its assembly, so I looked how to simplify it and came up with custom shield PCB for Nucleo, routing around the pins I will need only. Once fully assembled I think it will look better than current version. submitted by /u/Peekabrrrrrr34 [link] [comments]

A grand study conducted by the Centre for Development Studies (CDS) reiterates the major talking point all through the mobile ecosystem: India had soared further into the elite international group of suppliers of mobile phones and was positioned as the third-largest exporter of mobile phones in the world, with exports worth around US $20.5 billion during the calendar year 2024.

The Meteoric Rise: From Dependent on Imports to Export-Driven Power:

Six years ago, in 2017-18, India was exporting a mere amount of US $0.2 billion worth of mobile phones. By 2024, this figure has crossed the $24 billion mark marking an astonishing almost 11,950 per cent increase. Such explosive growth coincided with India moving from being a player in domestic manufacturing only to a scale export-led manufacturing partner in the bigger global arena.

Government encouragement and production-related incentives:

Key to this change is the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme floated in 2020 and implemented ever since. Since then, this bold policy has largely helped the foreign Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and contract manufacturers to invest in local facilities and infrastructure. So, we have a big-scale output and a robust integration into global value chains (GVCs).

Multi-layered domestic value addition stood out as a strong trend. Direct value for production of mobiles has seen an almost 283% rise from US $1.2 billion in FY 2016–17 to about US $4.6 billion in FY 2019–20. Even more impressive has been the growth in indirect value addition upstream supply chains by 604%, from US $470 million in FY 2016–17 to about US $3.3 billion in FY 2019–20.

With this economic growth came a greater occasion for employment: Further estimates indicate that more than 1.7 million direct and indirect jobs were linked to mobile production in 2022–23, and the number of export-related jobs rose at an astounding 33-fold. Wages too are rising, thanks to growing high-skill jobs in export-oriented units.

Global Trade Strategic Development:

India now ranks third in the mobile phone exports after China and Vietnam, having achieved exports worth nearly US $20.5 billion in 2024. World’s Top Exports data suggests that India exported 7.1% of global mobile exports in 2024, amounting to US $20.48 billion an increase of 585% compared to 2020.

This is in consonance with the CDS findings, positing India as a major exporting hub for mobiles. Contract manufacturing for brands such as Apple, Samsung has further accelerated exports, while the competitive ecosystem consisting of the likes of Foxconn, Wistron, Pegatron, and Dixon Technologies leads to high-volume outputs.

Conclusion:

The mobile export surge in India is more than just headline numbers; it means a structural global competitiveness transformation, portraying how policy-driven incentives together with industrial ecosystems can facilitate a rapid climb. With this blueprint led by mobiles now gaining momentum, other electronics floors such as laptops, networking equipment, and consumer electronics are ready to replicate the success, taking India one step further into becoming a global manufacturing powerhouse.

Governed jointly by the Centre for Development Studies and the Indian Cellular and Electronics Association (ICEA), the report intends to provide a clearer understanding of the effect of government policies on India’s electronics manufacturing sector.

Shipping in PCBs has become extremely ecpensive where I live unless you buy in bulk...tried my hand at etching PCBs to develop prototypes...nice to be able to do this...ofc not having multiple layers adds lots of limitations, but I can see myself testing out new chips or designing my owm modules in an afternoon... submitted by /u/Separate-Choice [link] [comments]

I built a thing. See gallery* 3KW 15-170VDC Programmable H-bridge driver. With adjustable Duty, Frequency (250Hz - 160KHz), and deadtime. ESP32 for the controller SSD1306 I2C 128x64 OLED Display 74AHCT125 Logic level converter and output control IR2110 x2 hi/lo gate drivers IRFP260N MOSFETS x4 Artic Cooling AM3 cooler from the junk drawer 15-150VDC to 12V DC-DC converter module - for gate driver ICs and active cooling 7-40VDC to 5V DC-DC converter module - for esp32, display and logic converter PWM thermo fan controller module Lots of various TVS diodes, some ferrite beads, the usual caps and resistors, and a handful of tactile buttons. As the controller is a ESP32, it can be re-flashed depending on what we are trying to blow up today. Inverting (Arcs/induction heating/Switching transformers) - Flyback (More sparks) - Half-Bridge - Motor Controller (zoomzoom) Obviously the first thing to try is big arcs with Aliexpresses finest £6 'wind yer own primary' HV transformer for about 35KV output from a 35V 10A draw. (If I tune it in just right I get u/130V peak to peak in the tank) https://www.youtube.com/shorts/37gKJzHNFdA Next was an induction heater, worked well at 90KHz and a 5 turn coil and 4uF in the tank, drawing 15 or so amps at 30V will turn bolts into LEB's... Didn't play much with the induction heater on the bench though, as the fields play havoc with anything in range. PC crashes, monitors glitch, and unconnected multimeters showing random voltages. Building the hardware was simple enough: check datasheets and assemble. I didn't make a diagram as I had a fair idea of what I wanted in my head, so I then just let my hands finish the job. The firmware is another matter. Having never played with any of these little controller chips before, or tackled any kind of coding bar a few websites, it. was. a. challenge. I found that if I were patient, the freebie chatGPT gave me a hand with bits as long as I didn't ask too many questions in a short timespan (using that was another frustrating experience in itself ha). I got there in the end though with... * Complimentary PWM output (using a synced GPIO pin for resyncs across the legs, as for some reason the ESP32 will fall out of phase occasionally when adjusting the frequency) * Full frequency control on the fly * Duty control with min/max limiter * Switching deadtime control (with frequency-related limiter) * 2 stacks of resistor ladder buttons Yet to do Polish and combine firmwares and add a mode of operation menu (argh). Add current sensing, so it can scan frequencies for the sweet spot of transferring energy. (some hardware tweaks and more arghhh) Large capacitor bank sitting at the input (as my power supply is not enjoying the huge pulse currents much) More TVS diodes when I can find some that don't come with 30 quids worth of 'handling fees' T'was fun to make, a steep learning curve to program, and great entertainment when built. Mates enjoyed the firework show with the big arcs, jacobs ladder, and the odd game of 'how short a rollie can I light off the arc' , while I enjoyed getting some rusty as shit bolts undone, and watching people with short rollies fall out of seats. All in all, it cost me about £40 or thereabouts. 10/10 - would make again. *Bonus photos include late night shed visitors submitted by /u/RollingWithTheTimes [link] [comments]
