Circuit analysis with op-amp (Part 1)
This is the first part of a series of posts that show an analysis of practical circuits that use an operational amplifier (op-amp).
Operational amplifier: how does it work?
The operational amplifier, or op-amp, has great utility on electronics. In this post, it’s shown the operation of this integrated circuit (IC).
Fly-by-Wire: what is it?
This post’s subject is an introduction to Fly-by-Wire systems on modern airplanes. It’s shown how it works and the advantages in relation to old systems.
Electrolytic capacitor: how it works?
Why does the electrolytic capacitor has polarity? Why there is a voltage limit? These and other questions are answered in this post.
Geiger-Müller counter: how does it work?
This post’s subject is Geiger-Müller counter. An instrument invented in 1908, which identifies radioactive objects and measures ionizing radiation level.
Hysteresis: what is it?
The hysteresis is very common on materials and systems. It’s the capacity to keep a property, after remove the stimulus that induces this property.
pHmeter: how does it work?
Meeting requests, today’s subject is the operation of pHmeter. An instrument that measures acidity and alkalinity of solutions.
MOSFET: how does it work?
The MOSFET is another type of field effect transistor. Much more used than JFET and it’s the most important component for digital computers.
Junction field effect transistor
The junction field effect transistor (FET) is a component with many applications. In this post, are shown the structure and the operation.
