Circuit forms simple, low-cost, 1-kV driver -  13-May-04 Issue of EDN  High-voltage drivers have recently received much attention, because they play an important role in driving piezoelectric and electro-optical components, for example.... [Design Idea by Tai-Shan Liao and Prasit Champa, National Science Council, Hsinchu, Taiwan]

Circuit makes universal VCSEL driver -  10-Jul-03 Issue of EDN  VCSELs (vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers] are commercially available infrared semiconductor lasers with λ≅850 nm. Short-cavity-length, high-quality Bragg mirrors impart properties to VCSELs that differ from those that earlier Fabrey-Perot lasers impart. The emission characteristics—optical power, Pλ, versus diode current—shows threshold and operating currents..... [Design Idea by Andrzej Wolczko, Institute of Electronics AGH, Krakow, Poland]
Circuit provides effective LCD drive -  09/28/00 EDN-Design Ideas  EDN is migrating links. This link is not verified.  Search the "title" + "EDN" for new link.
Circuit tests VCOM drivers -  11-Nov-04 Issue of EDN  Flat-panel LCD monitors offer excellent image quality andcompact form factor than CRTs—hence, their steadily increasing popularity. Unfortunately, the complexity of their manufacturing process makes LCD monitors considerably expensive than CRTs. The amplifier that drives VCOM, the voltage on the backplane of the LCD panel, must be able to drive large capacitive loads, deliver h..... [Design Idea by Soufiane Bendaoud, Analog Devices, San Jose, CA]
Circuits drive single coil latching relays -  13-Nov-08 Issue of EDN  Five driver circuits operate single-coil latching relays..... [Design Idea by Alfredo H Saab and Tina Alikahi, Maxim Integrated Products, Sunnyvale, CA]
Code provides adjustable differential drive for robots -  16-Oct-03 Issue of EDN  Intelligently modifying the motor-drive commands to a robot can give you control finesse during competitions. Moving a joystick hard right, for example, might have different effects, depending on the robot's speed and direction. Software running on an inexpensive microcontroller (in this case, an NEC (www..... [Design Idea by Alton Harkcom, EGO North America, Newnan, GA]
Compact laser-diode driver provides protection for precision instrument use -  3-Apr-08 Issue of EDN  A compact, cathode-grounded laser-diode driver provides protection against ESD damage, start-up spikes, overshoot, and possible fluctuation due to external optical feedback..... [Design Idea by Jiaqi Shen and Xiaoshu Cai, University of Shanghai for Science & Technology, Shanghai, China]
Complementary LED Drive -  Microchip Application Note Published 6-Nov-98.....[App Note]
Composite VGA encoder/decoder eases display upgrade -  09/28/06 EDN-Design Ideas.....Upgrade an RGB video system without adding cables..... EDN is migrating links. This link is not verified.  Search the "title" + "EDN" for new link.
Constant current, constant voltage converter drives white LEDs -  2-Sep-04 Issue of EDN  LEDs usually take their drive from a constant dc-current source to maintain constant luminescence. Most dc/dc converters, however, deliver a constant voltage by comparing a feedback voltage to an internal reference via an internal error amplifier. The easiest way to turn a simple dc/dc converter into a constant-current source is to use a sense resistor to convert the output current to a voltage..... [Design Idea by Keith Szolusha, Linear Technology Corp, Milpitas, CA]
Constant-Current DC/DC LED Driver in ThinSOT -  Linear Technology LT1932 (app note added 2/05)
Controller provides multiple alarm-driver formats  -  15-Jan-98 Issue of EDN  Using a piezoelectric element for alarm applications offers low cost, low power, and flexibility. By coupling this element with a 12C508 programmable controller (Microchip Technology, Chandler, AZ], you can implement an eight-pin alarm generator.  This approach provides multiple driver formats with a minimum of additional cost and footprin..... [Design Idea by William Grill, Riverhead Systems, Littleton, CO]
Current mirror drives multiple LEDs from a low supply voltage -  5-Dec-08 Issue of EDN  A pulsed current mirror comprising discrete transistors drives LEDs from a low voltage, avoiding thermal runaway..... [Design Idea by Rex Niven, Forty Trout Electronics, Eltham, Victoria, Australia]
