Introduction There are many off-the-shelf ICs available for charging Li-Ion batteries. In this Note we present a Li-Ion charger design based on a GreenPAK mixed-signal IC and a GreenFET load switch from Dialog Semiconductor. There are some advantages in using the GreenPAK approach. For one, we may integrate the solution with…

This guide describes the implementation of an audio signal detector using the GreenPAK SLG47512. The design can detect human speech or music and ignore single tone noise or flat random noise. The audio signal detector can be used in safety services or to save energy in audio decks. Introduction Sound can…

This project guides on the use of the SLG47513 to implement an electric toothbrush. The global population increasingly prioritizes oral health and hygiene. This factor is driving the utilization of toothbrushes across the world. Electric toothbrushes enhance the brushing experience and brushing habits. The most popular and effective type of…

Learn how to make a position and speed control of a DC motor. This project focuses on making an educational kit to demonstrate the effect of a PID controller on the response of a DC motor trying to reach a specific position, in this case the zero position. …

Want to make a flashlight by yourself? This step-by-step guide aims to outline how to design and build a fully functional single AA or AAA cell flashlight. …

Introduction The main goal of this application is to design an Induction Heater device using the SLG47105V. The system is designed using the HVPAK macrocells and other internal and external components within the HVPAK to drive two powerful N-MOSFETs to control the Induction Heater. The proposed Induction Heater has four power…

Introduction This application note describes three PWM design variants using GreenPAK IC: 1. “0–100% PWM” is PWM signal generator with the possibility to control the signal’s duty cycle from 0 to 100% full range, controlled by external or internal signal (for instance: signal from external pin, I2C signal, from a comparator…

Introduction Some applications require oscillators not already served by the on-chip oscillators inside a GreenPAK IC. This application note describes two designs wherein a few passive external components can be used as an oscillator, which is connected to a GreenPAK. The first design is a low-power RC oscillator. The second is…

Introduction In this application note, a pair of Renesas GreenPAK™ SLG46537’s is used to create the electronic components for a simple basketball arcade machine. These machines tally baskets scored within a certain amount of time. They can often be found in arcades like Chuck E. Cheese’s or Dave & Buster’s. Basketball…
