The second week of September was an interesting week with lots of exciting components being launched for various high-speed differential applications, battery-driven IoT devices,…
The beginning of September was an interesting week with lots of exciting components being launched for various automotive electronics, industrial applications, and medical…
The LM741 and LM358 are classic and popular op-amp designs. The LM358 is a considerably newer part than the LM741, and despite the fact that they are both general-purpose op-amps…
In some cases, the manufacturers of certain ICs make them in different packages containing a different number of units. Although they might appear similar, different op-amps on…
The end of August was a pretty interesting week with lots of exciting components being launched for various automotive, industrial, and space applications. In this article, we’ll…
The alphabet prefixes in front of the part numbers of ICs are often taken for granted, since all they do is represent the manufacturer of the IC (although not in all cases) – but…
There are many reasons why you should not use an op-amp as a comparator, which is also the reason why dedicated comparator ICs exist. In this article, we will take a closer look…
A Multimeter, a variable power supply, a soldering iron and an oscilloscope are arguably the most basic lab requirements for anyone working with electronic circuits. Of all the…
A typical electronic circuit design consists of passive devices like resistors, capacitors, inductors, and active devices like Integrated Circuit (ICs), Diode, Transistors, etc.…
From compact shunt resistors to bulky current transformers, engineers adopt a wide range of current measurement techniques in their designs to measure and monitor current in their…
