Iterative voltage drop calculations are some of the most tedious and time-consuming components of an electrical design process. This is especially true for large lighting installations, such as those ...
With the rising popularity of residential and commercial landscape lighting, end-users and homeowners have begun looking for systems and components that combine easy installation and adequate safety ...
When we moved into our new home — a major fixer-upper — I thought it wasn’t cozy because of the arctic-blue painted walls (everywhere) and swirly brown 1970s carpets. And sure, the décor wasn’t ...
Sunnyvale, Calif.—Advanced Analogic Technologies Inc. (AnalogicTech) announced two charge pump products that are aimed at helping designers build smaller, more feature-rich mobile handsets. The ...
Since the earliest versions of indoor LED light bulbs were developed, their designers have faced a variety of technical challenges. These include AC-to-DC power conversion, thermal design/heat-sinking ...
Transmitting information using light is more energy efficient than using electrical signals. Unfortunately, for small-scale applications, light-based encoding through electro-optic modulators (EOMs) ...
Monochrome Affinity by Migliore+Servetto for NEUTRA. Image © Carolina Gheri Forestier collaborates with renowned designers to create lighting pieces that blend ...
All circuits, analog or digital, have characteristics dependent on the values of their component parts. Invariably, these parts are non-ideal in many ways. Even their most fundamental characteristics, ...
This voltage regulator delivers smooth control of a constant voltage from 0 to 8 V. It protects the load against short circuits and indicates connection, overload, and output level. The series chain ...
