I was working on an embedded project for the STM32F446RETX and wanted to test how bad exceptions and virtual function calls really are for embedded development. From everything I'd ever read, these features were supposed to be "bad"—especially in memory-constrained environments. So imagine my surprise when I compiled a simple test program and the resulting... Continue Reading →

DC/DC - Converters as Impedance TransformersMPPT - AlgorithmPerformanceConclusoinLiteratureMeeting Infineon Did you know PV solar panels have a preferred load impedance for maximal power output? For example, if you connect a zero ohm resistance (short) you will have U=0V and thus P=U*I=0W. If you increase the resistance more and more power will be drawn until a... Continue Reading →
