AutomationDirect announces the release of a new White Paper, “Basic Pneumatic Circuits”, which discusses common pneumatic circuits that can be used alone or as building blocks in larger pneumatics ...

This video provides a clear explanation of resistors and their role in electronic circuits. It covers the function of ...

Ladder logic uses switch or relay contacts to implement Boolean expressions. In years past, ladder logic was made possible with discrete relays and was sometimes termed “relay logic.” Today most ...

The current-mode or peak-current-regulating switching converter is a familiar, almost dominant, power supply circuit consisting of few parts and is usually designed with “cookbook” procedures from PWM ...

This video explains the function of diodes and how they are used to control the flow of electrical current in electronic circuits. Diodes are essential components that allow current to move in only ...

Courtesy of www.MikeHolt.com. Based on the 2020 NEC. Class 2 circuits are limited to voltage and current values that don’t (usually) present a shock or fire hazard. The power supply for a Class 2 ...

A common complaint in the comments of many a Hackaday project is: Why did they use a microcontroller? It’s easy to Monday morning quarterback someone else’s design, but it’s rare to see the OP come ...

Exerting delicate control over a pair of atoms within a mere seven-millionths-of-a-second window of opportunity, physicists created an atomic circuit that may help quantum computing become a reality.
