The circuit reflects the electrical connection of various components in electronic products and equipment, so as to help people become familiar with the circuit structure and working principle of ...

The process of designing, manufacturing, and testing ICs is complex and exhaustive. The main contributors are the design and verification teams, IP vendors, and IC manufacturers. The process of ...

Sometimes I wish FETs had become practical before bipolar transistors. A FET is a lot more like a tube and amplifies voltages. Bipolar transistors amplify current and that makes them a bit harder to ...

The 555 timer is one of the most versatile integrated circuits available. It can generate PWM signals, tones, and single-shot pulses. You can even put one in a bi-stable mode similar to a flip flop.

Reviewing a typical protective device trip curve (click here to see Fig. 2), it can be divided into three regions. First is the “instantaneous region,” which is the region intended to interrupt ...

All circuits, analog or digital, have characteristics dependent on the values of their component parts. Invariably, these parts are non-ideal in many ways. Even their most fundamental characteristics, ...

You’re probably familiar with the little black boxes nestled neatly inside your favorite devices. With their diminutive size and unassuming characteristics, it can be hard to believe these vessels are ...

What circuit edit is and the financial and time-saving benefits in product development. Next-generation semiconductors and their potential impact on circuit edit. How advances in circuit-edit ...

AI is vying for circuit and embedded-system design jobs, but in 2025, it still requires a seasoned engineer to ride shotgun. Insight into AI and its use as a tool to design circuits and embedded ...
