Sample text

One such application is the radio frequency identification device (RFID) systems. The block diagram of such a system is shown in Figure 1-10. The system consists of an unmodulated radio frequency transmitter transmitting RF power at a suitable frequency. The frequency of operation is determined by the quartz crystal used. A higher frequency of operation would require a smaller transmission antenna. The transmitter is powered with a DC supply voltage of a suitable value. The radiated signal is received by a tuned circuit consisting of an inductor and a variable capacitor in parallel that is tuned to the frequency of the transmitter.

To use an LED, you need a suitable circuit and a DC voltage source to forward-bias the LED. The circuit is needed to determine the amount of current passing through the LED. For a particular LED, the forward current is chosen depending upon the intensity required from the LED and the amount of current that the LED can handle. One cannot exceed the current rating over extended periods without running a risk of damaging the LED. The peak forward current rating should never be exceeded. In its simplest form, the circuit associated with the LED to determine the current is just a simple resistor.

When connecting several LEDs in parallel, the sum of the current through all the LEDs should be less than the current source (or sink) capability of the microcontroller pin. In case the current through the LEDs exceeds the capability of the microcontroller, the configuration shown in the previous illustration (or the one that follows) should be used. Chapter 2 +V(Drive) R1 +Vcc Rb Microcontroller The configuration in this illustration uses an NPN transistor to drive many LEDs arranged in series.
