Non-electrolytic capacitors are therefore used in applications where long-life is important. In this paper we present a driving stage for LEDs without any capacitive elements. The basic topology is a Buck converter with one coil, one active, and one passive switch. Instead of the output capacitor, series connections of one or more LEDs and an active switch are connected. An additional diode is connected between the output and the input to achieve a current path, when all LED- paths are off. A nonlinear hysteresis controller is used to achieve a robust control. A system with three switchable LED-strings is analyzed. Design hints are given and the function is proved with the help of LTSpice simulations. The system can be used for lighting purposes with the possibility to change the chrominance. The potentiality to transmit data is also treated.

A critical part of their education is the development of their intuition for secure and safe software. In this paper 1 1 This research was funded by the city of Vienna (MA-23 call 21, project no. 9). we present an evaluation system used to generate fast and accurate feedback for student submission in, but not limited to, embedded software development courses. The system can be used as a first feedback loop to outline to the students where problems exist in their code and give them the opportunity to analyze and correct their errors. These extra steps ensure that the students can and will be notified early about their mistakes and can search for correct solutions, supporting the student's learning process. We present the implementation of the system and analyze its deployment in a microcontroller software development lecture. This analysis was done by means of surveys of the students and lecturers as well as a statistical analysis of the student submissions. The results show that the students made use of this extra features and even would prefer to have this feedback in other software development lectures as well.
