<hr><p>These application notes are presented as a means of making useful circuits and sub-circuits available, along with some information about how they work, test results (where applicable), etc. Some of these are adapted from the projects page, as their application has the potential to be broader than indicated in the project itself.
|
|
|
|
<p>Few of these (already published or yet to be published) are original, although some have been adapted and changed to the extent that the original may barely be recognisable. As always, if you have a good circuit idea feel free to submit it (along with any reference material).</p>

<p>ESP reserves the right to change or update application notes, projects and articles without notice, so it is important to be aware that a change may have been made. You should always watch for updates of previously published items. Do not build any of the circuits presented here without checking for updates first. An 'update' symbol indicates a recent addition or update.</p>

Where applicable, mains wiring should be carried out by suitably qualified persons only. Under no circumstances should any reader construct any mains operated equipment unless <i>absolutely</i> sure of his/her abilities in this area. The author takes no responsibility for any injury or death resulting from, whether directly or indirectly, the reader's inability to appreciate the hazards of household mains voltages, lack of knowledge of correct wiring practices, etc. Please read the <a href="../disclaimer.htm">disclaimer</a> now if you have not done so already.<br /><br /></td></tr>

<p>Please note that these application notes are not supported, so please do <i>not</i> ask for assistance or explanations. All circuits are checked for accuracy, but it is not guaranteed that they will work for your application. In the same way that you might find application notes published by semiconductor (or other) manufacturers, you don't e-mail them for help and the same applies here.</p>

<p>Submissions are welcome, but unlike magazines where they may offer prizes or cash for submissions, all I can offer is wide distribution of your idea. Please ensure that any submission is accompanied by full disclosure of references - do not try to claim the work of others as your own.</p>
