The Planet Analog post by Paul Illegems, “Can You Easily Build Integrated Power Switches? Part 2,” offers sound design principles to limit switch Rds_on and parasitic routing resistance when building ...

My last column converted an imperfect receiving device into an ideal termination using a constant-resistance network (Reference 1). The schematic in Figure 1 extends that idea, combining a good ...

If you want to measure resistance and you know Ohm’s law, it seems like you have an easy answer, right? Feed a known current through the thing you want to measure and read the voltage required. A ...

Pulse-width-modulation (PWM) duty cycles above 50% require a compensating ramp — called slope-compensation — to avoid instability. With traditional slope-compensation solutions, it is difficult for ...

Ningbo Joyson Electronic has been granted a patent for a programmable resistance circuit that configures selected resistances using a reference resistor. The circuit utilizes a modulated voltage ...
