The electronic devices we encounter all around us are driven and controlled by the flow of electrical current through electronic circuits. Each circuit is an arrangement of electrical elements ...

This is a science course intended for the student curious about modern electronics and its use in enhancing their own designs as well as in preparation for Pratt’s DDA and ID courses in interactive ...

Electronic musical instruments are a lot of fun for a hacker because, with a small palette of tools, know-how and curiosity, they are easily modified. As with any hack, there is always the chance that ...

This lab course introduces students to modern topics of engineering optics. Teams of students will carry out four different projects: holography, lasers, free-space optical communication, and ...

Power Semiconductor devices that are commonly used in power electronic circuits. Starting with the circuit models of these devices, we will identify the requirements leading to low loss circuits and ...

Linear, small-signal AC models can be useful in the analysis and design of vacuum-tube-based circuits. Under large-signal conditions, nonlinear models are typically required. Almost 120 years ago, ...

Here’s a rundown of some approaches that may come in handy when you need to solve a power-regulation issue in a not-so-standard fashion. Power needs regulating. It doesn’t usually come in the form we ...

An op-amp operates on analog input. It can be used to amplify or attenuate this input, and to carry out mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, integration, and differentiation. Because ...
