Demand for specialized integrated circuits for military electronics continues to surge exponentially with no end in sight. Systems that synchronize the activity of unmanned aerial vehicles; real-time ...

The future of circuit design, encompassing analog, RF/5G, and custom electronic circuits, is set to be revolutionized by the integration of generative AI tools. These advanced tools will not only ...

For reliability, designers must create flex circuits that are neither too thick nor bend too much. • Every flex circuit has a neutral-bend axis. • Smaller circuit thickness reduces the risk of damage ...

Circuit Dynamics: Design-Oriented Analysis, Dennis L. Feucht, Innovatia (www.innovatia.com), first printing: OCT 2016, 86 pages, 6 × 9 inch, glossy softcover, $25 US. This short book is a systematic, ...

Improving density in circuit design is an ongoing challenge. One solution is to reconsider circuit layouts from the perspective of bandwidth optimization.

The Circuit Designer’s Companion (Edition 4) by Professor Peter Wilson (University of Bath, UK) could have been entitled “Introduction to the Real-World of Electronic Design.” The information content ...

All circuits, analog or digital, have characteristics dependent on the values of their component parts. Invariably, these parts are non-ideal in many ways. Even their most fundamental characteristics, ...

The 555 timer is one of the most versatile integrated circuits available. It can generate PWM signals, tones, and single-shot pulses. You can even put one in a bi-stable mode similar to a flip flop.

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Peter Lyon is based in Tokyo and writes about the car industry. This article is more than 4 years old. An image taken from the ...
