We bet when [devttyS0] made his latest video about RF filter design (YouTube, embedded below), he had the old saying in mind: in theory, there’s no difference between theory and practice, but in ...

Digital signal processors (DSPs) continue to receive a great deal of attention in new product design. For example, digital filter design reflects the importance of understanding and using this ...

Prior knowledge needed: ECEA 5700 Introduction to Power Electronics, ECEA 5701 Converter Circuits, ECEA 5702 Converter Control, ECEA 5703 Magnetics Design, ECEA 5705 Averaged Switch Modeling and ...

There comes a time in every electronic designer’s life when, whether they know it or not, they need an analog filter in their design. If you’re coming from a digital background, where everything is ...

Introduction It is often necessary to filter data from sensors or audio streams in order to suppress unwanted noise. And, most of the time, a simple first order filter is all that is required. The ...

The selection of component values for common mode filters need not be a difficult and confusing process. The use of standard filter alignments can be utilized to achieve a relatively simple and ...

Everyone has probably come in contact with one type of filter or another in their lifetime. Maybe it was a coffee filter used to separate the grounds from the liquid, or perhaps an oil filter to ...

Microwave filters are essential components in modern communication and sensing systems, providing controlled frequency selection to isolate desired signals and suppress undesired ones. Design efforts ...

The design of a switching power supply has always been considered a blend of magic and art by every engineer that designs one for the first time. Fortunately, today the market offers different tools ...

In my May blog post, I described the construction of a low-pass filter that used op-amps, capacitors, and resistors. I ignored thermal drift, long-term accuracy, and other characteristics and tested ...
