For those who enjoy building radio projects, you may have noticed that variable capacitors are not as available as they once were. There was a time when all radio receivers contained at least one, but ...
The inside of classic radios holds wonders that the sterile chips and SMD components of today’s circuits can’t hold a candle to. Chunky resistors and capacitors, vacuum tubes with cathodes aglow, and ...
What’s the simplest and/or most complex way that we could use a Teensy 3.6 microcontroller board to (reasonably) accurately measure the value of a variable capacitor? What’s the simplest and/or most ...
How do you implement a variable capacitor these days? Mechanical caps are out. That leaves varactors, which work fine but require higher voltages that often are not available, and their response is ...
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Peregrine Semiconductor Corporation, a fabless provider of high-performance radio-frequency (RF) integrated circuits (ICs), today announced availability of the ...
This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. Cavendish Kinetics now offers a tunable RF micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) capacitor that lets smart-phone antennas cover a ...
