how to get 3.3v from one 1.2v battery
Hi,
Thanx for the diagram, but I was more interested in a circuit that takes 1.2 volts and can produce 3.3volts (I've seen other circuits, but with other transistors)
And as a challenge, I wanted to learn how to do this with what I had on hand. I'll try to find my 20 yr old transistor book and go from there, or search on google.
Using that old adage, this is more a learn to fish than a quick TV dinner. My line of reasoning is that a resistor can lower the voltage, but what is the opposite circuit that allows for a higher voltage?
Could I achieve this with a 555 timer (and do other things like flash it too)? I'll try to find out if 1.2 volts can drive a 555 IC. Most circuits I've seen use a 9 volt battery- but that might be due to other reasons.
[btw, what did you use to make the diagram?]
thanks,
John
