LTs Switching Regulator Circuit Collection
As noted on dangerousprototypes.com, Linear Technology provides a nice application note containing a circuit collection for almost all power supply needs: Battery, Boost, Buck, Buck-Boost, Flyback, Forward, High Voltage, Multioutput, Off Line, Preregulator, Switched Capacitor and Telecom. Download the application notes as PDF from LT
Interfacing the 3-V MSP430 to 5-V Circuits
On Dangerous Prototypes, they point to an app-note from TI which shows various ways of level-shifting between a 3V MCU (like the MSP430) and 5V peripherals. The paper includes various examples for input, output and bi-directional level-shifting. They also cover the topic power-supply, giving examples on how to provide both: 3V and 5V to your [...]
Robot with MSP430 Launchpad as Brains
Longhorn engineer has has a nice and clean robot build with an MSP430 Lauchpad as Brains on his web-page. I like especially the design of the power supply: It has 3 switching power supplies providing 3V at 4A, 3.3V at 500mA, and 5V at 1A. The main power source is a single cell 3.7V lithium [...]
Some more Video Tutorials
On “JumperOne” I found some more video tutorials covering various things regarding electronics. E. g. there you can find a tutorial on how to build a bench power supply out of an ATX power supply.
