How does a silicon temperature (temp) sensor IC actually measure temperature? These ICs take advantage of the basic temperature-dependent behavior of silicon PN junctions. If you have two PN junctions ...
To understand the concept of a remote temperature sensor and how it differs from a local temperature sensor, it’s best to first review some basics of temperature-sensor ICs. A silicon ...
[Miroslav Hancar] wasn’t satisfied with abusing just a single component for our Component Abuse Challenge. He decided to abuse a whole assembly, in particular, some LED candles. In this project, LEDs ...
We installed the new Ballistix modules in a Gigabyte GA-H55N-USB3 motherboard, and set the XMP timings in the BIOS. Next we installed the MOD software in the Windows 7 Home Premium OS and proceeded to ...
How to navigate the expanding market and avoid missteps where the newest sensors provide more capability than what you’ve ...
Heat is the primary enemy of electronics reliability. In industries like automotive, aerospace, and heavy industrial, the engineering reality is harsh: for ever ...
