In low power laser diode modules the designer has the option to use the classical discrete solution or take advantage of fully integrated driver ICs. Often the component cost is the only driving ...

In the early stages of designing a high power, high value product, the development team will decide whether to implement the intermediate power stage and Point-of-Load converters using fully ...

Years ago, Tektronix could not justify an expensive, high-performance semiconductor operation solely for producing competition-defeating ICs for oscilloscopes, and formed a joint venture with Maxim ...

An industry expert addresses the debate of discrete components vs. external boxed filters for suppressing noise. The analysis and suppression of electro-magnetic interference (EMI) generated from high ...

H-bridge buck-boost ICs are widely used in applications requiring a constant voltage or current source even when the system battery drops to lower voltages. They make sense when a single-stage ...
