There have been many different ideas presented for increasing the acoustic output of a piezo buzzer or ultrasonic transducer. Most of them involve rather complicated circuitry that drives up the total ...

The software speeds up electrical design by eliminating time-consuming, manual steps, making work easier and more reliable.

The circuit of Figure 1 generates sinusoids down to very low frequencies with distortion in the region of 3% or less, yet has no feedback or gain-stabilizing components because none are needed. It ...

There is one analog graphic which remains impressive in spite of all the computer graphics programs available for screen savers and such. Known as quadrature art, the display can be produced with an ...

We all carry supercomputers in our pockets and use dozens of electric gizmos every day but rarely stop to marvel at the magical act of flicking a switch. Use your ordinary conducting and extraordinary ...

A simple circuit is a chain of different parts with wires and switches which allows electricity to flow around. All electrical appliances use circuits. For electricity to flow correctly, the circuit ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. In designing an input stage for an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), engineers choose a particular amplifier, assign a target gain, and note the ...
