The current-mode or peak-current-regulating switching converter is a familiar, almost dominant, power supply circuit consisting of few parts and is usually designed with “cookbook” procedures from PWM ...

Building simple circuits with copper tape, LED bulbs, resistors, and watch batteries is not as simple as you might think. Notre Dame Elementary School STEM students are putting the engineering design ...

Chaos Theory has been an important pursuit of physicists and mathematicians since it was brought to the forefront as a distinct phenomenon in the early 1960s. This early exposition got the attention ...

Using simple components such as oil, salt water, lipids and proteins, plus routine genetic engineering techniques, it is possible to create simple nanofluidic ...

We all carry supercomputers in our pockets and use dozens of electric gizmos every day but rarely stop to marvel at the magical act of flicking a switch. Use your ordinary conducting and extraordinary ...

In the ongoing drive to make circuitry ever smaller and more powerful, researchers in Canada have taken things to a very small extreme. They devised a method for turning individual silicon atoms into ...

For electricity to flow, everything needs to be connected in a big ring. It’s called a circuit. For example, the lights in most houses and flats are part of a circuit controlled by the consumer unit, ...
