Music to my ears

The EPCOS PQSine active harmonic filter

Music to my ears
Dr. Richard Michelson, EPCOS, a TDK Company

To a non-engineer, the word “harmonics” has a beautiful sound – one that to many conjures up an image of a concert with instruments playing beautiful music. The harmony is what combines with the melody to turn the composition into something complex and beautiful rather than being just a simple tune. However,

Dynamic power scaling
Bruce Petipas, Analog Devices

In today’s data acquisition systems (DAQs), performance boundaries are continually being pushed.  System designers require higher speed, lower noise, and better total harmonic distortion (THD) performance; all of which are possible but none of which are free.  These performance improvements typically

Safety vs. performance

The creepage distance is the shortest path between two conductors along the surface of an isolator (typically a PCB)

Safety vs. performance
Srivatsa Raghunath, Infineon Technologies

When designing a switch-mode power supply (SMPS) operating losses and the ability to dissipate heat are critical selection criteria for MOSFETs. The standard TO-220 package is generally good at dissipating heat and the wide range of heatsinks and forced-air cooling options available can easily improve this.
