Andrew Lai has created a new Raspberry Pi accessory which takes the form of a remote control power switch, and has been created to provide a consumer electronics experience with control via a single ...

I will eventually have 3-4 POE cameras in and around my main house, and I'd like to power them from a POE switch. I'd also like to power-cycle them remotely, as ~$100 cameras have a habit of needing ...

I've tested (and tore down) several network-controllable power switches of late; Belkin’s WeMo and, more recently, TP-Link’s HS100, both Wi-Fi based. Then there's GE's (sold under license by Jasco) ...

If you want to easily control the power in a circuit, you’ll probably reach for the classic toggle switch. While there’s certainly nothing wrong with that, physical toggles are a bit dated at this ...

A load switch is an electronic switch. It works like a relay to power supply rails in systems, but it has no moving parts. Load switches are increasingly found in today’s portable electronic devices, ...

A friend of mine has a flaky DSL that needs to be power cycled. Frequently.<BR><BR>What's the cheapest _Mac_ widget to toggle power on an AC power outlet?<BR><BR>I can think of plenty of custom or ...

Connected plugs are a great way to get started with the smart home. Plug anything you want into one and you can control that formerly dumb device remotely. That's the idea behind the Monster Central ...

Converter ICs include an integrated power MOSFET, whereas controller ICs employ external power MOSFETs. Both configurations are classified as regulators because they regulate the output voltage. A low ...
