My article about voltage-to-frequency converters had a figure that showed the waveform on the base of a unijunction transistor (Fig. 1). This was a PSpice waveform generated by OrCAD 9. After the UJT ...

{Editor's note: This article originally appeared as a series of blogs in EE Times. It is replicated here in its entirety for the convenience of the EDN community.} Motors are all around us, and an ...

Jitter is the enemy of repetitive signals. If cycle time or phase changes, it can result in bit errors on digital signals and distortion in analog signals. Agilent Technologies' 33600A series of AWGs ...

A “loose neutral” in a residential location can cause equipment damage and even a house fire. An open neutral may start as a high-resistance connection that shows subtle signs in waveform capture data ...

Just because harmonics is becoming a more prevalent problem, that doesn't mean the subject is getting any easier to understand Harmonics are AC voltages and currents with frequencies that are integer ...
