circuitbasics.com talks about the SPI serial communications protocol: One unique benefit of SPI is the fact that data can be transferred without interruption. Any number of bits can be sent or received in a continuous stream. With I2C and UART, data is sent in packets, limited to...

James Lewis @ baldengineer.com discuss about switching regulator types and uses. A switching voltage regulator is one of my favorite circuits. In school, they were the first circuits I built where I understood how transistors worked. In fact, they were the first circuit I saw an...

Near Field RF probes can be very helpful when tracking down sources of unwanted RF emissions or radiation. This video presents the basics of the E-Field and H-Field probes, how they work, and how to use them. Basics of Near Field RF Probes -...

Deepak Behera, Sumit Varshney, Sunaina Srivastava, and Swapnil Tiwari discuss about using an oscilloscope to create eye diagrams and quickly evaluate system performance and gain. Accelerating data rates, greater design complexity, standards requirements, and shorter cycle times put...

In this article we will discuss about the various types of thyristors. Thyristors are 2 pin to 4 pin semiconductor devices that act like switches. For example a 2 pin thyristor only conducts when the voltage across its pins exceeds the breakdown voltage of the device. For a 3 pin...

In this article we will review the basic transistor types and their function. We will cover bipolar transistor, Junction FET, MOSFET and UJT transistor types. Feel free to comment with other transistor types you know. Bipolar Transistor Bipolar transistors are three terminal devices...

In this article we will discuss about the various types of diodes, their working principle and their common uses. We will cover many common diode types, such as P-N junction diode, Zener diode, Schottky diode, LED and laser diodes, photo diode, varactor diode, avalanche diode, PIN diode...
