FinFETs redefined chip design when they came onto the scene more than a decade ago. While these nonplanar transistors are still the unofficial industry standard, they may be nearing the end of their life. So, electronics engineers may need to ...

With a high-performance 160 MHz RISC-V core and a second low-power 20 MHz companion core, this tiny board targets smart home projects. Seeed Studio has launched a new entry in the XIAO family of small form factor microcontroller development boards, ...

Many precision test-and-measurement and high-speed analog applications require an exact targeted voltage to be delivered to the device under test or intended load to accurately analyze the device. Design and test engineers are well-aware that this ...

A recent trend in the design of portable devices has been to use ceramic capacitors to filter DC/DC converter inputs. Ceramic capacitors are often chosen because of their small size, low equivalent series resistance (ESR) and high RMS current ...

Ultra-Low-Power SOC With Risc-V Single-Core Microprocessor The ESP32-C6 SoC (System on Chip) supports Wi-Fi 6 in 2.4 GHz band, Bluetooth 5, Zigbee 3.0 and Thread 1.3. It consists of a high-performance (HP) 32-bit RISC-V processor, an low-power (LP) ...

Although adequate for undemanding applications, the circuit suffers from several drawbacks which may limit its suitability. The Darlington’s current gain (which can vary considerably from device to device and with temperature) plays a ...

New STM32H7R/S microcontrollers raise embedded-application performance to new levels for next-generation smart devices in factories, buildings, infrastructure, eHealth STMicroelectronics has revealed a new high-performance device that punches above ...

Introduction Electronic equipment uses predominantly positive voltage rails for power. Occasionally, some negative voltage rails are also used. For this reason, negative (or inverting) output DC/DC converter solutions are not as common as their ...
