Through-hole assembly means bending leads on components and putting the leads through holes in the circuit board, then soldering them in place, and trimming the wires. That took up too much space and ...

Circuit models are the heart of worst-case circuit analysis (WCCA). For simulations to be valid, you must gather and vet models or create them yourself; you can't usually rely on the manufacturer's ...

The end of an earnings season can be a great time to discover new stocks and assess how companies are handling the current ...

Last month's column covered the behavior of electrical components connected in series and demonstrated that when a voltage is applied across a series circuit, the current through each component is the ...

Electrical components, like motors close motorA device which spins when current flows through it. Motors are used in fans, food processors and many other devices. and lamps close lampA component which ...

Analog Circuit Analysis can be difficult. Consider the circuit below. It includes a Series Resonant Circuit. With Ideal Impedances, the Series Impedance is equal to zero at the resonant frequency. A ...

Researchers at the University of Illinois, Urbana Champaign, and Northwestern University, in Evanston, IL, have shown that electrical circuits can be made to fold and stretch and still match the ...

Branch circuits are undoubtedly the most commonly installed circuits in both residential and non-residential applications. And, since they supply the equipment that utilizes the electricity, they are ...
