Along with duct tape and nylon cable ties, heat shrink tubing is an essential element in the engineer’s toolkit as well as manufacturing, production, and repair. It’s used for covering and protecting ...
X-FAB, an analog/mixed-signal and specialty foundry, has launched a silicon carbide (SiC) process technology for power MOSFETs that delivers a significantly reduced cell pitch. That, in turn, enables ...
A new LED driver enables lighting designers to standardize design on a single component type, thus streamlining inventory and simplifying design processes. It’s a DC-switching LED driver-controller ...
The image of the electrical engineer or hacker bent over and using a soldering iron on a circuit board is a classic visual cliché on TV and movies (Figure 1). Figure 1 The electrical engineer working ...
In most operational amplifier (op amp) circuits, the resistor tolerance and resistor temperature coefficient determine the gain accuracy and gain temperature drift (Figure 1 shows a typical circuit).
