Engineers are increasingly having to design-in switching regulators and choosing passives is very important as they determine the quality of the conversion.
The legendary cylindrical 3AG fuse is being replaced in many designs by surface-mount fuses that are not field or user replaceable.
There are many articles about non-linear op amps being used as a comparator, but IC vendors caution against this design approach.
Cobalt cathode cells provide longer-range performance and lower difficulty in charge measurement and management, when compared to other chemistries. However, the mining of cobalt has long been a hotly contested topic...
As with all simple-sounding materials and components, there’s much more to electrical insulation than just its most-obvious performance characteristics.
Reliable, monitored power-up and power-down are important in many modern systems and can be realized flexibly and with little development effort using analog sequencer solutions...
A reference design comprising charger and controller ICs helps create fast charging solution complying with the USB Type-C and PD...
GaN semiconductors require more attention to disciplined power and thermal management skills.
Researchers have developed a technique to transfer power to a neural stimulator.
Where does DC switching power audible noise come from, and how can it be reduced or eliminated?
