4½ Practical Uses for a Diode
The ubiquitous diode—though you likely have a good understanding of this device, this primer of sorts acts as a quick-read guide, highlighting many of the essentials you need to know.
Rapid Prototyping in the Era of Arduino, mikroBUS, and Processing
The age of rapid prototyping is upon us, with companies such as MikroElektronika, Adafruit, and Arduino making it easier for designers to bring concepts together in an impressively short period of time.
I got this by way of EE Journal:
Measure a Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) to Quantify Transmission Line Imperfections
Impedance mismatches in a radio-frequency (RF) electrical transmission line cause power loss and reflected energy. Voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) is a way to measure transmission line imperfections. This tutorial defines VSWR and explains how it is calculated. Finally, an antenna VSWR monitoring system is shown.
