All circuits, analog or digital, have characteristics dependent on the values of their component parts. Invariably, these parts are non-ideal in many ways. Even their most fundamental characteristics, ...

Editor’s note: I am proud to bring you this article authored by both Collin Wells, Applications Manager, General Purpose amplifier products, Texas Instruments and Gustaf Falk Olson, Field Applications ...

We’ve always been fascinated by things that perform complex electronic functions merely by virtue of their shapes. Waveguides come to mind, but so do active elements like filters made from nothing but ...

Ceramic resonators offer an attractive alternative to quartz crystals for stabilizing oscillation frequencies in many ...

Digital signal processors (DSPs) continue to receive a great deal of attention in new product design. For example, digital filter design reflects the importance of understanding and using this ...

Protecting single-phase power circuits is the job of a combination surge protector and EMI/RFI filter device. The Trabtech surge filter includes a coordinated TVSS and EMI/RFI filter circuit, ...

We bet when [devttyS0] made his latest video about RF filter design (YouTube, embedded below), he had the old saying in mind: in theory, there’s no difference between theory and practice, but in ...
