Measuring dynamic currents with an oscilloscope is challenging, but this updated differential current probe makes it simple ...

Many applications—such as drivingmodern ADCs, transmittingsignals over twisted-pair cables, and conditioninghigh-fidelity audio signals—require differential signaling to achievehigher signal-to-noise ...

Some ideal op amp configurations assume that the feedback resistors exhibit perfect matching. In practice, resistor non-idealities can affect various circuit parameters such as common mode rejection ...

One of the great things about the Hackaday community is how quickly you find out what you don’t know. That’s not a bad thing, of course; after all, everyone is here to get smarter, right? So let’s ...

The classic circuit breaker—a resettable overcurrent cutoff device—has been with us since the 1920s and is well-known for its reliable, consistent performance and a simple schematic symbol (Fig. 1).

The power transistor must be chosen to provide fast response while also withstanding high power dissipation. Several electrical and thermal characteristics must be considered: 1. An array of N current ...
