AC loads are everywhere around us because at least home appliances are supplied with the mains power. Therefore, we always face the situations that we want to have full control (dimming) over an AC load such as a lamp, a motor, vacuum cleaner...
Despite massive, large-scale integration being ubiquitous in contemporary electronic design, discrete MOSFETs in the classic CMOS totem pole topology are still sometimes indispensable...
It’s common for I2C systems to have both standard and fast devices on the same bus. For I2C systems, the speed and power consumption both depend on the values of pullup resistors...
This article discusses the use of dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) to achieve precise voltage regulation. DVS is a process that adjusts the output voltage slightly higher or lower in anticipation of load transients...
Electronic equipment uses predominantly positive voltage rails for power. Occasionally, some negative voltage rails are also used...
An obstacle detection unit is an essential part of a variety of projects, such as robotics and security applications. The infrared sensors are widely used for these types of applications...
ROHM has developed a linear operational amplifier (op amp) – LMR1901YG-M – featuring the lowest current consumption in the industry...
In electrical heating applications, resistive heaters are powered through phase angle-controlled SCR/triac circuits to vary the applied voltage/power to maintain the required temperature. Phase angle control produces a lot of harmonics leading to power line disturbances...
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...
