This is a simple fire alarm circuit using Germanium Diode and 555 timer. In this circuit Germanium Diode plays very important role in detecting the fire.This is a simple fire alarm circuit using ...

This circuit was designed to meet a medical application’s requirement to drive a laser diode with reasonable precision and a minimum of components and footprint (the device is now in clinical trials).

Atomtronics has the goal of developing a one-to-one analogy of electronic systems, components and devices with ultracold atoms trapped in optical lattices It is being researched at the University of ...

Laser diodes are enjoying ever greater popularity in sensor engineering and measurement technology thanks to their high optical output power. One of the advantages of this is that a wide optical range ...

The resistor and 10 uF capacitor are already forming a low-pass filter, which should prevent any spikes in either current/voltage. I don't know much about laser diodes though, so I am not sure what ...

The first part of our series to explain “ideal diodes” in the small-signal domain and to contrast them with those found in the power domain. The intent of this series is to illustrate the “ideal” ...

It isn’t unusual to expect a precisely regulated voltage in an electronic project, but what about times when you need a precise current? Over on EDN, prolific [Stephen Woodward] explains how to use a ...
