An electric generator is a device that converts mechanical energy into current. When might such a solution come in handy?

Quartz resonators are a precise solution for timing in electronic circuits. What is worth knowing about them?

The LM393 is one of the most widely used comparators. What is this circuit used for and what are its parameters?

How to connect a device with RS232 connector to a USB port? Just use an RS232-USB converter – check what you need to know about such solutions.

A suitable controller allows you to control the stepper motor, specifying the step and direction signals. What are the characteristics of such components?

A phototransistor is an electronic component that combines the functions of a transistor and a photodiode. What is its mechanism of action and what can it be used for?

The light sensor is one of the most common electronic components. Learn the most important information about this type of equipment with the Botland store.

According to some it sounds funny, according to others it sounds awful. The facts are that many machines will not work without gears, and many gears without worm gears. Today we are unraveling this mystery.

Key in the context of safety and health, environmental protection and scientific research, sound measurements are carried out for us by clever sonometers. Let’s take a look at how they work

Monitoring, automation, security and interaction with the environment. Let’s have a look at how optical sensors collect data for us and help control parameters.

Electric buttons are certainly not something to be afraid of, as they do not generate energy and are passive. For the electronics novice, however, all of this can be difficult at first. Fortunately, there is Botland Blog.

They say that to get stronger, you have to wrestle a bigger opponent. We, on the other hand, offer an article on electric actuators – completely without forcing. We invite those who do not want to be surprised to read.

Since without an AC-DC conversion, not a move is made, rectifier diodes are so popular and widely used in electronics. In today’s article, we will look at the 1N4148 diode and its undeniable advantages.

A generally available component that costs relatively little, yet the practice of use is widespread. We present the IRFZ44N N-MOSFET transistor in a nutshell.

Perhaps the most interesting part of the history of transceivers are the anecdotes that show how they have had a significant impact on our lives – from science, to humanitarian aid… to space exploration. But first, let’s see how they work in general.

A power supply is a power supply, it’s supposed to be and that’s it. Or actually? Well, it’s not necessarily that simple. Today about the essence of voltage regulation and the potential problems when we choose unwisely to weigh this topic lightly.

Popular for their efficiency, low noise levels and power losses, toroidal transformers have been successfully paving the way for electronics developers for years.

Electronics is looking for voltage regulation over wide ranges, ease of use and durability. One of the chips offering them is the TL431.

So much has already been written about them, and they remain a fascinating and extremely important element in the field of technology. Their role in everyday life is invaluable, although we often do not even realize their existence.

Atmel has revolutionized today’s electronics. In fact, he has been doing it since 1984. We introduce you to one of its tiny wonders – the ATTiny85 microcontroller.
