Some time ago I was looking into those "power bank" chips that make 5V out ouf a Li-Ion battery with very low standby currents. This niche seems to be dominated by various Chinese manufactures which only have Chinese datasheets available. With PDF editors & Internet it is possible to translate this, but due to the horrible PDF format this is a very time consuming nuisance. PDF was desgined long ago as an intermediate format to have books made by a printing press. Trying to edit a PDF file is horrible. The concept of "lines" or "paragraphs" does not exist in PDF files. Just try to read a PDF file on an E-reader (which is too small a screen to show an A4 formatted PDF page in one go) and you'll know what I mean. |
