My caller last week was in a real bind. The design was almost done and he had run out of room. He needed help. The system needed a comparator function and the circuit board was full. After going over ...

The industry standard LM2901 quad and LM2903 dual comparators and LM2902 quad and LM2904 dual op amps, from Diodes Inc., feature an extended operating temperature range of -40 ºC to +125 ºC. The parts ...

A comparator is a great circuit because it provides a near ideal transition between the analog and digital domains. The comparator looks at two linear input signals and gives a digital output that’s ...

Of digital electronics, a wise man once said that “Every idiot can count to one.” Truer words have rarely been spoken, because at the end of the day, every digital circuit is really just an analog ...

The operational amplifier is arguably the most useful single device in analog electronic circuitry. When you apply them in the circuits, you must know their basics and functions. As for the function ...

Circuit simulations are great because you can experiment with circuits and make changes with almost no effort. In Circuit VR, we look at circuits using a simulator to do experiments without having to ...
