An SCR topology transmogrifies into BJT two-wire precision current source with a self-resetting fault-current limiter.

It isn’t unusual to expect a precisely regulated voltage in an electronic project, but what about times when you need a precise current? Over on EDN, prolific [Stephen Woodward] explains how to use a ...

National Women’s Soccer League commissioner Jessica Berman threatened to fine the Kansas City Current after a disagreement over extreme heat procedures that delayed a match against Orlando Pride by ...

At first glance, [RobBest]’s constant current source looks old school. The box is somewhat old-fashioned, featuring switches and binding posts. Most importantly, there’s a large analog meter ...

Looking for Constant Contact alternatives that actually move the needle? You’re not alone. The editor can be a little clunky, automations shallow, and the integrations list is a bit weak. When you’re ...

We live in an era of constant surveillance. Psychology research shows how this might change how we perceive the world — even unconsciously When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

The ever innovative and prolific Mr. Woodward has offered “PWM-programmed LM317 constant current source,” an intriguing programmable constant current source which elicited a lively conversation in its ...

We have examined voltage sources, and now we can examine their less-known but necessary complement, the current source. Figure 1. The schematic symbol for a current source can be either a circle with ...

Voltage and the lesser-known current sources provide critical IC, circuit, and system functions. Voltage sources and their complement to current sources are essential elements of many systems, ...

Abstract: Three-dimensional stacked integration based on through-silicon via (TSV) meets the high-speed development requirements of integrated circuits (ICs). However, TSV is a sensitive unit prone to ...
