The circuit has been constructed to provide an in-circuit system that will test the integrity of electronic components such as Silicon Controlled Rectifiers, diodes, and PNP or NPN transistors. 4093 – ...

Fig. 1: The silicon-controlled rectifier One major aspect of development in broadcast transmitter technology and power electronics is in the area of power control. On the traditional transformer, we ...

Non-insulated power supplies are often required when a power semiconductor, which has to be controlled using this supply, has its drive reference connected to the mains (line or neutral terminal).

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection remains a critical facet in the design and fabrication of CMOS integrated circuits. With the continuing downscaling of device dimensions and the increasing ...

A reader contributes a circuit idea for triggering a stop-motion camera setup and a dialog between the author and Electronic Design's Anoop Hegde illuminates the circuit design process. Fig 1. This ...
