Mars 2020 Rover will carry a drone Copter Steve Taranovich, Editor-in-Chief, Planet Analog, 5/22/2018 Comment now 1 Comment I visited NASA/JPL-Caltech today, the home of the Mars Rover program. Most recent post, jonharris0, 5/23/2018 7:30:54 AM Thank for sharing this Steve! What an incredible mission! I am excited... 1920s thoughts regarding radiotelegraphy Steve Taranovich, Editor-in-Chief, Planet Analog, 5/17/2018 Comment now Ever wonder how we got to 5G? Many earlier discoveries, experiments analyses led to wireless communication, but let's look at what helped spur wireless radio 90 to 100 years ago. Understanding current-feedback fully differential amplifiers Loren Siebert, characterization engineer, high speed amplifiers, Texas Instruments, 5/16/2018 Comment now Although current-feedback operational amplifiers (op amps) have been on the market since the 1990s, the current-feedback fully differential amplifier was not introduced until 2007. Why are there all these power domains for high speed ADCs? Umesh Jayamohan, Applications engineer, High Speed Converter Group , Analog Devices, 5/16/2018 Comment now Editor's note: I am pleased to bring you another edition of RAQ by Umesh Jayamohan Lead the Field in Electronics Dennis Feucht, Electronics Engineer, 5/16/2018 Comment now The leaders in any field of human endeavor have some common characteristics. One of them is their keen effort to be at the forefront of any new developments in their field. In electronics engineering, this effort includes frequent updates on available components that can be incorporated into new designs. New components are usually announced on Web pages ... IoT systems need high integration, small form factor power conversion devices Tony Armstrong, Director of Product Marketing for Analog Devices’ power products, 5/14/2018 Comment now Background Low Intensity Light Detection Requires High Stability, Low Noise Electronic Circuitry Mike Doherty, Vice President, High Voltage Products, XP Power, 5/12/2018 Comment now When it comes to low intensity light detection, performance requirements often lead to selecting devices with greater sensitivity than common photodiodes or even charge coupled devices (CCDs). Specialized detectors such as avalanche photodiodes (APDs), photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) and microchannel plates (MCPs) are often employed for these more precise ... College students and educators benefit as Arduino and MathWorks team up Steve Taranovich, Editor-in-Chief, Planet Analog, 5/12/2018 Comment now I do not believe that there is anything more powerful in our industry for mentoring prospective young 'techies' than a learning tool powered by MATLAB and Simulink software. This month we saw the intro of the first official Arduino Engineering Kit which provides a hands-on educational approach from this team effort. We need more of this kind of ... Measuring charge/discharge current of EV batteries and other current sense apps Steve Taranovich, Editor-in-Chief, Planet Analog, 5/11/2018 Comment now Texas Instruments tells us that Battery-monitoring systems are used to estimate state of health (SOH) and state of charge (SOC), especially in Electric Vehicles (EVs). To get detailed information about SOH and SOC, integrating accurate sensors into the battery-monitoring system is critical to protect the battery from damage. For a typical battery, ... Buffer Amplifier Design Dennis Feucht, Electronics Engineer, 5/7/2018 Comment now The x1 voltage amplifier or "buffer" is a standard building block of analog design. This article presents the design of a discrete, low-parts-count, high-performance, matched-transistor buffer, and covers some of the finer points in optimizing its design.

Input single ended or differential. Serial... Laxtronics on Bipolar precision signal measurement using Delta Sigma ADC 5/7/2018 2:59:01 PM Academia and Industry: Another way that industry and academia relate is the way I went through school in the late-60s, early-70s. I lived near Tektronix and got a job there right out of high-school, at age 17. Wow! For a 17-year-old nerd, Tek was like a sci-fi adventure... D Feucht on Next generation of engineers get industry experience at the university level 5/7/2018 2:45:56 PM Re: The Unitrode seminars legacy: Indeed, Lloyd Dixon deserves being inthe E.E. Hall of Fame, if there were one. He has derivations of equations in some of his articles, but it has been left to me and others to bore the reader with a multitude of equations. When I do it, I...

One time I sat beside Lloyd H. Dixon, one of the major contributors of the early seminars and author of many papers that can be found in the seminars booklets. At that time,... sby on Texas Instruments still carries on Unitrode power seminar tradition 5/2/2018 3:06:13 PM Competitor, then colleague: Rich and I frequently crossed paths at shows and conferences because we both covered test & measurement.
