The Seemingly Impossible Oscillator

Back in the days when an integrated circuit meant a simple but expensive device such as a 741 or a 555, most electronics ...

My truck’s air conditioner only works when set to full blast

John Paul, AAA Northeast's Car Doctor, hears from a reader whose truck’s AC only works with the blower on high. The post My truck’s air conditioner only works when set to full blast appeared first on ...

Generation of a Family of Very High DC Gain Power Electronics Circuits Based on Switched-Capacitor-Inductor Cells Starting from a Simple Graph

Abstract: A simple graph with four nodes and eleven branches is defined. Its branches are filled in different ways with passive elements (capacitors, inductors, diodes) or replaced by shortcircuits in ...
