When current flows through a conductor it becomes an inductor, when there is an inductor there is an electromagnetic field (EM). This can cause a variety of issues during PCB layout if you don’t plan ...

PCB design can limit the performance or reduce the reliability of a class-D amplifier if some basic layout guidelines are not followed. The following describes some good PC board layout practices for ...

You can make all sorts of different types of inductors, but the most common type is cylindrical coil of wire---a solenoid. When current runs through the first loop, it creates a magnetic field that ...

Parasitic capacitance is unwanted capacitance created on PCB boards, and every PCB designer should watch out for it. Two closely spaced signal traces can create a lateral parasitic capacitance within ...

Semiconductor manufacturers have developed innovative production techniques that enable the integration of multiple components and a dc-dc converter IC die into a single module. Producing such a dc-dc ...

Infineon gives vertical power delivery a push with a new generation of multiphase power modules that can be tucked underneath ...

Situation: You’re an IT person new to radio broadcast engineering and are given the keys to an AM transmitter site. The manager says to go out and get familiar with the equipment. The site reminds you ...
