In the previous tutorials, we discussed two passive properties of electronic components, resistance and capacitance, and their electronic components, resistors and capacitors. Passive components are unable to generate energy, but can store or dissipate it. We’ve already learned about the electrical properties of resistors and capacitors, including how they affect the current and voltage in…

We have already discussed fixed resistors and variable resistors. Interestingly, resistors are not just limited to be used for limiting current, dropping voltage and dissipating power. There are many special types of resistors which work as transducers too and so, they can be used as sensors in the circuits. A transducer is a  device which…

Murata Manufacturing Co. Ltd. recently introduced a CMCC (Common Mode Choke Coil) for Automotive Ethernet (100BASE-TI) named as DLW32MH201YK2. Its ability to face ab extreme temperature range (from -55 to +150°C.) makes it one of the first of its kind in the world. Murata plans to begin its mass production from December 2019 onwards. Why…
