Combine two TL431 regulators to make versatile current mirror
Various designs for current mirror circuits have been an active topic recently here in Design Ideas (DIs). Usually, the mirror designer’s aim is to make the mirror’s input and output currents accurately equal, but Figure 1 shows one that takes a tangent. Being immune to traditional current mirror bugaboos (Early effect, etc.), it can achieve […]

Sensing and power-generation circuits for a batteryless mobile PM2.5 monitoring system
Editor’s note: In this DI, high school student Tommy Liu builds a vehicle-mounted particulate matter monitoring system that siphons power from harvested wind energy from vehicle motion and an integrated supercapacitor. Particulate matter (PM2.5) monitoring is a key public-health metric. Vehicle- and drone-mounted sensors can expand coverage, but many existing systems are too costly for […]
