We bet when [devttyS0] made his latest video about RF filter design (YouTube, embedded below), he had the old saying in mind: in theory, there’s no difference between theory and practice, but in ...

Nyquist-sampling theory lies at the heart of today's digital-communications systems. It requires that data-conversion systems include antialiasing input filters. Designers need to understand the ...

We’ve always been fascinated by things that perform complex electronic functions merely by virtue of their shapes. Waveguides come to mind, but so do active elements like filters made from nothing but ...

Digital signal processors (DSPs) continue to receive a great deal of attention in new product design. For example, digital filter design reflects the importance of understanding and using this ...

The design of a switching power supply has always been considered a blend of magic and art by every engineer that designs one for the first time. Fortunately, today the market offers different tools ...

Prior knowledge needed: ECEA 5700 Introduction to Power Electronics, ECEA 5701 Converter Circuits, ECEA 5702 Converter Control, ECEA 5703 Magnetics Design, ECEA 5705 Averaged Switch Modeling and ...

Low-pass filters (LPFs) are fundamental components in modern electronic systems, serving to permit signals below a designated cutoff frequency while attenuating higher frequencies. Recent advances ...

Introduction It is often necessary to filter data from sensors or audio streams in order to suppress unwanted noise. And, most of the time, a simple first order filter is all that is required. The ...

In this paper, we first review in detail the basic building blocks of reconfigurable devices, essentially, the field-programmable gate arrays, then we describes a high-speed, reconfigurable Systolic ...
