Cheap Pushbutton replaces Rotary Switch - 10/26/00 EDN-Design Ideas: The problem of setting any one of four modes of aµC-operated process has a straightforward solution: Have theµC check the states of some 4 bits of aµC....(design idea added 05/02)
Circuit Breaker Monitors Leakage Current - 06/21/01 EDN-Design Ideas:.....(design idea added 11/05)
Circuit breaker provides overcurrent & precise overvoltage protection - 06/07/07 EDN-Design Ideas: A simple circuit breaker delivers precision overvoltage protection and overcurrent protection.....(design idea added 07/07/07)
Circuit Measures Currents in DC Servo Motor - 12/06/01 EDN-Design Ideas: The simple circuit design in Figure 1 lets you measure all components of a current flowing in a dc servo motor. The rectified output of the circuit uses ground as a reference, so you can measure the output by using a single-ended A/D converter. The current-sense resistor, R1, has a value of0.....(design idea added 1/05)

Current Sense Curcuit Collection - AN105 Linear Technology Sensing and/or controlling current flow is a fundamental requirement in many electronics systems, and the techniques to do so are as diverse as the applications themselves. This Application Note compiles solutions to current sensing problems and organizes the solutions by general application type. These circuits have been culled from a variety of Linear Technology documents.

Current sensing scheme improves PFC on/off sequences - 06/27/02 EDN-Design Ideas:    PFC (power-factor-correction)preconverters typically use the step-up, or boost, configuration, because this type of converter is relatively easy to implement (Figure 1). However, this topology requires the output voltage to be higher than the input voltage. When this condition is not the case—for example, with on/off sequences or under load.....(design idea added 10/03)
Current Sensor - High-wattage appliances like electric irons, ovens and heaters result in unnecessary power loss if left ‘on’ for hours unnoticed. Here is a circuit that senses the flow of current through the appliances and gives audible beeps every fifteen minutes to remind you of power-’on’ status. This is a non-contact version of current monitor and can sense the flow of current in high-current appliances from a distance of up to 30 cm . It uses transistors in the input to provide very high input impedance (1.5 T-ohms), very low input current (10 pA) and high-speed switching performance. ….(electronic schematic added 11/08)
