For electricity to flow, everything needs to be connected in a big ring. It’s called a circuit. For example, the lights in most houses and flats are part of a circuit controlled by the consumer unit, ...

Current sources are widely used in industrial control systems to transport analog process signals over long distances, but they are less widely used than voltage sources. This post loosely reviews the ...

This video explains how resistors function and how Ohm’s Law defines the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in electronic circuits. Resistors are passive components used to control ...

Troubleshooting refrigeration equipment often requires measuring various electrical properties such as voltages, current flows, and resistances. Understanding these basic electrical fundamentals and ...

Using a current limiter in boost converters for circuit protection. An easy-to-implement design idea to achieve the desired current limiting. 1. A current limiter is added to a power bank that has an ...

When tasked with a current sensing requirement, designers typically look first to using dedicated resistors designed for this task. Occasionally though there is the temptation to consider sensing ...

The term hot loop is relevant whenever switching regulators and their electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) are involved. This topic especially comes up in the optimization of trace routing on printed ...
