This Design Idea provides a simple, inexpensive, portable circuit as an alternative to a microcontroller to provide a wide-range source of low-distortion sine waves for audio-circuit design and ...

When a design needs auxiliary voltage rails and the associated current loads are modest, capacitor pump voltage multipliers are often the simplest, cheapest, and most efficient way to make them. Wow ...

Single-chip transmitters proposed by some IC manufacturers have good electrical performance, but they're often plagued by some drawbacks. For instance, they're hard to find in small quantities. Also, ...

Quickly learn what the difference is between PMOS and NMOS transistors in their structure and operation, and how CMOS works with the two in combination. Siliwiz, a free, browser-based, ASIC layout ...

The integration of analog with digital and the increase number of on-chip features in mixed-signal controllers demand more complex I/O structures. Though they are sometimes some of the most neglected ...
