315M Transmission Circuit Principles and Usage of 315M Wireless Module

315M Transmission Circuit Principles and Usage of 315M Wireless Module

315M Transmission Circuit Principles In a static state, 12V provides voltage to the collector of Q2 through L1, R1, and the base-emitter of Q1. When data arrives, Q2 turns on, causing the emitter of Q1 to be at 0 potential, which means Q1 is initially off. When the emitter of Q1 is at 0 potential, … Read more

The Importance of Small Series Resistors in Circuits

The Importance of Small Series Resistors in Circuits

In many circuits, small-value resistors are connected in series. Don’t underestimate them; they actually play a significant role. 1. SPI Signal Lines For SPI signals, the series resistor is generally around tens of ohms and has the following functions: 1) Impedance Matching. Since the impedance of the signal source is very low, and there is … Read more
