We’ve read a lot about oscillators, but crystal oscillators seem to be a bit of a mystery. Hobby-level books tend to say, build a circuit like this and then mess with it until it oscillates.

Harmonic distortion is not a problem unless it becomes a problem. Harmonics are a breakdown of a distorted waveform into its separate frequencies, which are integer multiples of the fundamental ...

Dual-frequency resonance tracking (DFRT) is a technique that utilizes contact mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) to measure a sample’s weak electrical or mechanical responses. Conventional resonance ...

High Voltage, Inc. is an American test equipment manufacturing company located in rural Copake, New York. The company’s HPA line of ac testers are available with outputs up to 300 kV ac and power ...

Almost anytime physicists announce that they’ve discovered a new particle, whether it’s the Higgs boson or the recently bagged double-charm tetraquark, what they’ve actually spotted is a small bump ...

High-frequency resonant converter design considerations include component selections, design with parasitic parameters, synchronous rectifier design, and voltage gain design. This power tip focuses on ...

What is an LLC resonant power converter? Different approaches to LLC converter architecture. The half-bridge version of an LLC resonant converter. Modern-day power-management designs demand ever ...
