A current-limiting circuit is often needed to protect the most expensive parts of the circuit from transients such as current spikes, which occur when a power supply is driving a large capacitive load ...

This reference design shows how to develop a high-performance, high-voltage 2- or 3-wire 4–20mA current-loop transmitter suitable for industrial process control and ...

Editor’s note: This month we are pleased to have Colin Wells from Texas Instruments as our blogger. In modern industrial control systems, 4-20 mA current-loop transmitters remain one of the most ...

The I/O capabilities built into most microcontrollers make it easy to measure the analog world. Say you want to build a data logger for temperature. All you need to do is get some kind of sensor that ...

A proposed new model for current-mode control retains the strengths of existing models such as ease of use and the ability to capture subharmonic oscillations, while improving on weaknesses like dc ...
