An inverter provides power backup for mains-based appliances in the event of a power failure...

Renesas Electronics Corporation introduced the RA2L2 microcontroller group with ultra-low power consumption and the industry’s first support for the new UCB-C Revision 2.4 standard...

The electronic circuit injects a precise 1 Amp of current into any unknown resistor, up to about two ohms. Two alkaline C cells power the complete circuit...

This article discusses the applications of an operational amplifier for electrochemical gas sensors such as ethanol and carbon monoxide...

Recently, I published a Design Idea describing a bidirectional current mirror using just two transistors and a diode. That circuit works well in some applications, like the one shown in the DI itself, but it nevertheless has limitations due to various error-introducing effects...

pSemi Corporation, a Murata company announced the introduction of a new high-performance mmWave SPDT RF switch: the PE42528...

Solar events have destroyed grids, set wires on fire, downed satellites. Are we ready for the next big one?...

With a fortnight’s struggle, I completed the design of 4 mA to 20 mA, two-wire temperature transmitter using a platinum resistance temperature detector (RTD) sensor, as shown in Figure...

At its invention roughly four decades ago, STM created a sensation because it was the first technology to make atomic-scale-resolution imaging a routine procedure. An essential requirement for the practical application of STM is some means for the reproducible fabrication of supersharp, atomic-scale needle tips...

The voltage booster is a 'true' charge pump. When the output of the 555 is low...
