With so much analog-circuit design being done by automated tools and circuit-performance analysis done with tools such as Spice, it may seem anachronistic to actually go through a basic circuit in ...

Design of CMOS digital integrated circuits, concentrating on device, circuit, and architectural issues. Analysis and design techniques in custom integrated circuit design, standard cells, memory. Use ...

Capacitor discharge circuits are used extensively in fast pulse generation. In such applications, the capacitor's stray inductance (or equivalent series inductance) and series resistance play an ...

Microchip Technology has introduced the MPLAB® PICkit™ Basic in-circuit debugger, aimed at making its advanced programming and debugging capabilities more accessible to engineers at all skill levels.

This article showcases the advantages of an op amp loop-stability analysis method that I use myself and recommend to others. This method looks at the behavior and rate of closure of the open-loop gain ...
