Active pull-down in LSTTL totem-pole output
The lower totem-pole transistor of a LSTTL IC frequently has an active pull-down from base to emitter (ground). Here is an example from TI's SN74LS93 datasheet.
I was curious how this active pull ...

The resistor is over heated in my totem pole circuit
This is my totem pole circuit:
It works well, but R32 is too hot.
This is scope:
I changed R32, R34to 470 ohm, but I got the same result:
I think the resistor value is the problem. How can I fix ...

Totem pole MOSFET driver does not turn off
I'm trying to drive a 12-24 V DC motor with MCU PWM output. My design is based on a totem pole gate driver
First I use a voltage divider to provide the full-on gate voltage (10 V) for my power MOSFET.
...

EGS002 48 to 220 V inverter using IGBTs [closed]
I'm trying to build a 48 to 220 V inverter using IGBTs.
The problem is that when I put on a resistive load (1500 W tea kettle) it works fine, but when I put on a inductive/capacitive load (1000 W arc ...

How to generate opposing outputs at 24V from 3.3V control signal
We have a set of 4 control signals at 3.3V.
For each of these control signals, we want to generate a pair of output signals. For example, if \$control_1\$ is high, then \$out_1\$ is 24V and \$out_1inv\...
