For the cautious, a good piece of advice is to always wait to buy a new product until after the first model year, whether its cars or consumer electronics or any other major purchase. This gives the ...

Abstract: The paper discuses a new approach for designing self-checking sequential circuits with smooth power dissipation The proposed approach enables achievement of circuits with a lower overhead.

Abstract: Nonlinear rectifier circuits, having capacitors or inductors, are generally used as rectifier circuits, such as those in consumer electronics and appliances. It is known that such rectifiers ...

While passive precharge employs a power resistor to create an RC circuit that charges the capacitor asymptotically, active precharge can employ a switching converter with a buck topology that uses ...

Electronic circuits are integral parts of nearly all the technological advances being made in our lives today. Television, radio, phones and computers immediately come to mind, but electronics are ...
