As mentioned in the last article where we discussed Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), almost all electronic products designed for commercial use and legal sales, are required to possess one or more certifications as a proof that the product complies with certain regulations/guidelines and has passed related tests. There are tonnes of regulations and they differ from place…
Electric filters have many applications and are extensively used in many signal processing circuits. It is used for choosing or eliminating signals of selected frequency in a complete spectrum of a given input. So the filter is used for allowing signals of chosen frequency pass through it or eliminate signals of chosen frequency passing through it.

Interacting with Holographic projections in the real-world will no longer be limited to Si-Fi movies. Dimension NXG an IIT Bombay Start-up has developed an AI-powered holographic computer called “AjnaLens”. This wearable XR headset blends in the power of artificial intelligence and machine learning with Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR). It can project…
Along with range anxiety and lack of charging infrastructure, battery degradation is also one of the main hurdles in making Electric Vehicles feasible for the masses. Different types of Lithium batteries have different life cycles depending on their chemistries, normally it would be somewhere between a few hundred to a few thousand. Over this charge cycle due to aging,…
Every hobbyist wanting to dabble in radio has to – at some point – wind a coil or two, be it the antenna coil of an AM radio, a coil on a toroidal core for a bandpass filter in a communications transceiver or a centrally tapped coil for use in a hartley oscillator. Winding coils is not hard but quite time-consuming. There are different methods of making coils, depending on…
There is a long debate that Supercapacitors will overrule the battery market in the future. A few years back when Supercapacitors were made available, there was a huge hype about it and many expected it to replace the batteries in commercial electronic products and even in Electric Vehicles. But, nothing like that actually happened, because both Supercapacitors and…
Internet connectivity has become necessary nowadays as almost every electronic device needs an active internet connection to work properly. Although most of the devices have Wi-Fi connectivity options, but many devices and network routers still used Ethernet ports and cables to connect with the wired internet line. We previously learned about how data can be transferred over…
In electronics, surges are a very critical thing and it is a nightmare for every circuit designer. These surges are commonly referred to as impulse which can be defined as a high voltage, typically in a few kV which exists for a short duration of time. The characteristics of an impulse voltage can be noticed with a High or Low fall time followed by a very high rise time of…
While integrating autonomous features in modern vehicles, leading auto companies are exploring the future of urban mobility in the aviation industry. The emerging concept of air taxis reflects the dramatic transformation that is underway in the automotive industry.
With a mounting number of cars on roads, especially…
Filters are commonly used in power and audio electronics to reject unwanted frequencies. There are many different types of filters used in electronic circuit designs based on the application but the underlying concept of all of them is the same, that is to remove unwanted signals. All these filters can be categorized into two types- Active filters and passive filters. The…
It’s the moonshot of our time. From sensors to artificial intelligence (AI), the classic electronics supply chain has formed a collaborative matrix dedicated to making autonomous vehicles safe. To that end, there is much to be done in hardware and software development to ensure drivers, passengers, and pedestrians are protected. While machine learning and AI have a role to…
We all know that life is sustained on earth because of the sun as it provides sufficient heat energy to keep the earth warm. This energy is delivered by the sun in the form of Electromagnetic radiation which is usually called solar radiation. Some of the radiation is beneficial to humans while another radiation is harmful to all life.
