This resource provides clear explanations of how switching regulators work and how voltage boosting is achieved efficiently ...

If you are looking for simulation software, you are probably thinking LTSpice or one of the open-source simulators like Ngspice (which drives Oregano and QUCs-S), or GNUCap. However, there is a new ...

This simple circuit tests speakers, microphones, transformers and voltage. It’s basically a very low frequency oscillator that produces extremely short ‘fruity’ pulses. The type of sound produced is ...

Author’s note: This article shows how to derive circuit gain equations via a signal flow graph. With practice you may be able to write a gain equation by locating signal paths and loops in the ...

Through-hole assembly means bending leads on components and putting the leads through holes in the circuit board, then soldering them in place, and trimming the wires. That took up too much space and ...

In the first of a multi-part series on how to design a custom chip for under $1,000, our Analog Editor gets you started with a Magnificent 7 list of textbooks. TinyTapeout offers a course that ...

According to the most recent data from the World Bank, 15 percent of the world’s population—approximately 1.1 billion people—lacked access to electricity in 2014. In 1994, approximately 27 percent of ...

Electrical components, like motors close motorA device which spins when current flows through it. Motors are used in fans, food processors and many other devices. and lamps close lampA component which ...

As with the clock, many compelling biological questions centre on how interactions among genes and proteins, forming genetic circuits, give rise to specific cellular functions. Genetic and biochemical ...
