New “transient electronics” dissolve in the presence of water, opening up a new range of possible applications. Image via the Beckman Institute, University of Illinois and Tufts University For most of ...

This video explains the function of diodes and how they are used to control the flow of electrical current in electronic ...

Protection subsystems often can inhibit innovation in terms of performance. Devices such as surge stoppers and protection controllers avoid having to implement bulky TVS diodes, and thus help overcome ...

imec and CMST, its associated lab at Ghent University, have developed thermoplastically deformable electronics technology that is said to enable the creation of low cost 2.5D free form rigid ...

Quantum mechanics describes the weird behavior of microscopic particles. Using quantum systems to perform computation ...

It's only a circuit breaker. How hard could it be? A surprising number of engineers specify the wrong type of circuit breaker to protect their equipment. Engineers frequently overprotect or ...
