Frederik Dostal explains the rise of the ideal diode and how it can be used to develop more robust power systems.

Demand for voltage-controlled current sources (VCCSs) and multipliers in a wide spectrum of electronics and communication devices always seems to exist. The multipliers employed in circuits like the ...

A few years ago, I was working on the design of a data acquisition system (DAS) that would eventually need to be tested when manufactured. It had both high-side current sensing and floating diff-amp ...

Alternating Current (AC) systems are analyzed using “phasor algebra” ala Stienmetz. Most engineering students initially learn this technique as it applies to single-phase systems. These training ...

It isn’t unusual to expect a precisely regulated voltage in an electronic project, but what about times when you need a precise current? Over on EDN, prolific [Stephen Woodward] explains how ...
