A German research team has explored the technological basis for reducing the energy losses in power grids and electric devices by more than half. This can be made possible through the use of direct current (DC). DC allows for smaller power losses when compared to the alternating current (AC) used today. The five project partners from industry and science...

STMicroelectronics’ LDLN025 Low-Dropout (LDO) voltage regulators deliver best-in-class noise performance in relation to output current and footprint, generating less than 6.5µVrms noise at 250mA full load with an outline of just 0.63mm x 0.63mm. To ensure high accuracy and sensitivity the LDLN025 is designed to supply ultra-smooth and stable voltage to precision ICs like ADCs, VCOs, or sensors. With the...

USB and networked interfaces for oscilloscopes and logic analyzers provides more test-and-measurement options to developers. Oscilloscopes are one of the primary electronic diagnostic tools, and there are a lot of vendors to choose from. While all oscilloscopes generally looked similar when they first appeared, things have changed radically since then. For example, do you know the difference between a digital...
