Impedance matching is easy if you know the basics. Download the eBook to find out how. The term “impedance matching” is rather straightforward. It’s simply defined as the process of making one ...

It’s one thing to learn about transmission lines in theory, and quite another to watch a voltage pulse bounce off an open connector. [Alpha Phoenix] bridges the gap between knowledge and understanding ...

In the “Say It with Me” series, we’ll take a commonly used concept out of electronics and explain it the best we can. If there’s something that’s been bugging you, or a certain term or concept that ...

Designing a matching circuit is fairly straightforward for a buffered input ADC because it offers almost constant impedance across all frequencies. As we have already seen, this is not the case with ...

To deliver the next generation of satellite services, operators are increasingly exploiting the benefits of wideband digital payloads. Broadband ADCs/DACs now directly digitise/re-construct IF/RF ...

Have you ever wondered what makes a loudspeaker “difficult to drive”? Do you wonder what’s so special about an amplifier that is stable into a 4 ohm load? If these are the kinds of questions that ...

Download this article in PDF format. Arbitrary function generators (AFGs) are used to generate many different types of electrical waveforms, such as sine waves, square waves, triangular waves, and ...
