This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. 1. The schematic and text include several circuit options (current source, transistor bias). The circuit is based on ...

Editor’s note: PhD candidate, Seyyed Hossein Pishgar approached me with this paper, which I believe has some unique and creative circuitry and architectures. I have ...

Low-power high-speed CMOS comparators and analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) play a pivotal role in modern electronics, from data-intensive computing systems to precision biomedical instrumentation.

Hackers frequently find themselves reverse-engineering or interfacing to existing hardware and devices, and when that interface needs to be a physical one, it really pays to be able to take accurate ...

Given the high levels of single-chip integration in use for analog functions, it may seem that a basic standalone comparator IC is an anachronism. Perhaps that’s the case, but Maxim Integrated doesn’t ...

The diagrams of two simple balance-bridge devices are given, which allow for the comparing of two inductances with high accuracy. An LED indicator, or high-impedance telephone headphones, are used as ...
