The ever-increasing use of wireless devices, such as mobile phones, computing, and remote sensing systems, have led to increased demand and dependence on the use of batteries. Currently, most ...
A major cause of losses in a conventional power supply using a 50/60-Hz transformer is the bridge rectifier. This article shows how to build a “greener” rectifier, substantially reducing losses by ...
Automatic Gain Control (AGC) circuitry is an important building block in modern wireless communication systems. In a receiver (RX), it is desirable to maintain the same input level for the A/D ...
