Last time on Circuit VR, we looked at creating a very simple common emitter amplifier, but we didn’t talk about how to select the capacitor values, or much about why we wanted them. We are going to ...

Micropower and low-voltage op amps allow you to build high-performance analog-signal processors that require no batteries or wall transformers. Instead, you can use a capacitor as a power source. The ...

A snubber circuit limits voltage spikes in power converters. Snubbers are also used in the output of Class-D audio amplifiers for the same reasons (Fig. 1). When the transistor you use to switch the ...

Ever found yourself tangled in a mess of wires and components, struggling to create a clear and intuitive wiring diagram? If so, you’re not alone. Many electronics enthusiasts face this challenge, ...
