Dive into the physics of RC circuits! Learn how to derive the equations for a discharging capacitor, understanding voltage, current, and time decay. A must-read for anyone studying circuit theory and ...

There aren’t many concepts in the entire sphere of electronics that are quite as fundamental as the RC time constant. The initialism standing for “resistor-capacitor”, the RC time constant is a ...

OBJECTIVE: You will wind (and test) your own inductor, which you will also use in the AM radio project in a subsequent lab. You will also investigate the properties of capacitors by making a simple ...

[Editor's Note: This tech bite was originally posted on the Fairchild Semiconductor website. Richard Chung, the applications manager at Fairchild, would like to bring these tech briefs from his team ...

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 ...

With just three transistors, one relay, and some resistors and capacitors, a single light switch can provide sophisticated control of high-power and low-power lamps. With just three transistors, one ...
