Julian Ilett
My name is Julian Ilett and I’ve been interested in electronics for as long as I can remember. I’m particularly interested in designing using microcontrollers.
I’m a published author - I had a number of projects grace the pages of Everyday Practical Electronics magazine back in the 1990s. These included the National Lottery Predictor, MIDI Analyser, EPE Fruit Machine and LED Matrix Message Display. I also wrote a piece called How to Use Intelligent LCDs which has gained a certain following on the internet. Part one is here and part two is here. You can also get to it via Wikipedia.
I took a break from electronics for a few years, but recently my interest in solar power got me thinking about designing a PWM charge controller. This blog is a sort of notebook of the design process. Apologies if it’s a bit jumbled.
