So, I'm pretty handy with a soldering iron to put together stuff, but I have little to know idea of how to go about figuring out how to build a circuit. I mean, I know what a resistor does, and a ...

It’s late at night. The solder smoke keeps getting in your tired eyes, but your project is nearly done. The main circuit is powered by your 13.8 V bench supply, but part of the circuit needs 9 V. You ...

Reverse polarity is one of the most common causes of circuit failure, from hobby projects to industrial systems. The good news is that a well-designed reverse polarity protection using MOSFET ...

It's really surprising: it turns out that among simple electronic circuits, built of just a few components, many of them behave chaotically, in an extremely complicated, practically unpredictable ...

Resistors are fundamental components in electronic circuits. Despite their simplicity, they play a central role in ensuring ...

Early last spring, we featured a book review, as part of our occasional Books You Should Read series. Usually these are seminal tomes, those really useful books that stay with you for life and become ...

How do I learn circuit building and electronics on my Mac? If you want to learn about basic electronic components and how to build simple circuits, using your Mac as a learning resource, then you’ve ...

Team discovers fast, simple way to create two-dimensional electronic circuits that could potentially lead to a new generation of electronic devices. When Northwestern Engineering's Erik Luijten met ...

Simple Sound Processor presented here is an ultra-simple circuit module suitable for almost all basic electronics and microcontroller projects. For example, this module can be used as a front-end in ...
