Among the abundance of components making up electronic circuits, very few are as important as capacitors. These components, taking the form of conductive plates separated by an insulating material ...

This is probably fairly straightforward for an EE to weigh in on so I thought I’d post this question here for posterity in the hopes that it’ll solve the issue for other designers. The challenge is ...

Situation: You’re an IT person new to radio broadcast engineering and are given the keys to an AM transmitter site. The manager says to go out and get familiar with the equipment. The site reminds you ...

High-impedance circuits, by nature, involve the use of high value resistors. Values range from hundreds of kilo-ohms up into the hundreds of Megohms and even as high as tens of Teraohms. Beyond the ...

All buck converters need capacitors on the input. Actually, in a perfect world, if the supply had zero output impedance and infinite current capacity and the tracks had zero resistance or inductance, ...

So far our discussion summarizes the fact that in practical electronic systems a combination of different DC-DC converter topologies are used to achieve the overall efficiency, noise minimization, ...

Scientists in India have developed a 500 W seven-level inverter prototype based on switched capacitors. The device is reportedly able to achieve a high efficiency despite switching, conduction, and ...
