Abstract: A network theoretic approach is employed to derive a number of circuits for i) constant load current, ii) constant load voltage, and iii) constant magnitude input current, when the load ...

Is the battery empty, or is there something wrong with the device? That’s always a difficult question when your walkman or some other battery-powered device appears to be dead when you switch it on.

The LM334 is not only an adjustable current source, but it is also a rectifier. Right on the front page of the TI data sheet are the words: “Reverse applied voltages of up to 20V will draw only a few ...

You need to know how to investigate how current changes with voltage for a component, eg for a resistor (or wire) at constant temperature, a filament lamp and a diode. You should be familiar with the ...

The "Circuit Shorts" series continues! This time, Saar covers dual-BJT constant current. There are many ways of driving LEDs and each has its merits for a particular application. Using a current ...

Abstract: This paper covers two possible designs for a new type of pseudo-differential transmitting circuit (TX circuit) such that signaling ideally produces no common-mode current variation. Here, ...

Suppose that you need to test a 1.5V, AA-size alkaline battery. You can apply a short circuit and measure current, or you can measure open-circuit voltage, but neither method properly tests the ...
