Many microcontroller designs typically mix multiple interfacing methods. A microcontroller (µC) system can be viewed as a system that reads from inputs, performs processing and writes to outputs.

Real switches and relays exhibit a finite resistance called “contact resistance,” which increases over time with the number of actuations. Furthermore, as a switch or relay changes state, the contacts ...

Our Radio World colleague Charles S. “Buc” Fitch, P.E., recently completed a relay interface assembly for controlling an older auxiliary transmitter. Late-model transmitters have remote control ...
