Electrical engineering is the study and application of electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism. In simple terms, it is about understanding how electricity works in order to use the knowledge ...

What if the next generation of disposable electronics—the sensors in your food packaging, the diagnostic strips in a medical ...

Electrical circuits have always been a mystery to me. Those tiny components that look like Chiclets or jewelry beads somehow make a light blink, produce music, and detect motion. So I was happy to ...

Residential electrical branch circuit breakers incorporate electronic and electrical technology in Arc Fault Circuit Interrupters that can turn off power to prevent fires if arcing occurs. This ...

QSPICE is an analog and mixed-signal simulator characterized by high simulation speed, accuracy and reliability. It is a new program and can be downloaded here. QSPICE is still in the demonstration ...

Scientists have announced a significant breakthrough toward developing DNA-based electrical circuits. Molecular electronics, which uses molecules as building blocks for the fabrication of electronic ...

Researchers have overcome a major obstacle in producing transistors from networks of carbon nanotubes, a technology that could make it possible to print circuits on plastic sheets for applications ...

Using two self-healing transistors and a load resistor, NAND and NOR logic gates were assembled, and their logic states were reliably maintained under 20% tensile strain. Moreover, the preassembled ...

What is a pre-charge circuit and what role does it play? The fundamental elements of a pre-charge circuit. Some basic best practices and where to find more information. A common challenge in systems ...

Engineers want to create flexible electronic devices, like e-readers that could fold into a pocket. One approach involves designing circuits based on carbon nanotubes instead of rigid silicon chips.
