    Abstract: Embodiments include an artificial soil composition for supporting plant growth and related methods. The artificial soil composition may include a mixture including at least three of the following components: (a) an iron oxide-containing industrial byproduct; (b) a sulfur- containing industrial byproduct; (c) a sand component; (d) a clay component; (e) a water- soluble polymer component; (f) a nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium (NPK) source; and (g) an organic matter component. Embodiments further include a method of making an artificial soil composition, a method of growing plants in an artificial soil composition, and the like.

    Abstract: Digital logic voltage regulators and related methods generate a regulated voltage via controlled switching of a power transistor. A digital logic voltage regulator includes a voltage level comparator, a power transistor, and a charge accumulator. The voltage level comparator generates a digital control signal that alternates between a first voltage level and a second voltage level in response to changes in relative voltage level between the regulated output voltage and the target voltage. The digital control signal causes the power transistor to switch from off to on in response to a reduction of the regulated output voltage relative to the target voltage and causes the power transistor to switch from on to off in response to an increase of the regulated output voltage relative to the target voltage. The charge accumulator decreases variation in the regulated output voltage that would occur without the charge accumulator.
