Improper System Grounding: Exploring the Dangers of Ground Loops
In dealing with electrical systems, proper grounding is not just a suggestion, it’s a fundamental safety measure. Yet despite its significance, the importance of adequate grounding is often overlooked or misunderstood. And one of the most misunderstood aspects...
Amplifiers in Imaging
Say MRI and most people think of human or hospital MRIs, also known as large or wide-bore magnetic resonance imaging. But did you know there are other sizes and categories of imaging, including small-bore and low-field MRI, MPI, and NMR? While MRI is often used for...
Wideband Switch-Mode Amplifiers
In the pursuit of more efficient and powerful electronic devices, switch-mode power amplifiers (SMPAs) have emerged as a frontier of innovation. As modern technologies demand higher performance, better efficiency and lower power consumption, the evolution of SMPAs has...
Importance of Heat Dissipation in Power Amplifiers
All electronic devices, and especially power amplifiers, inherently dissipate the electric power in order to operate. Since they have to deliver a considerable power to their load (hence the name), amplifiers need to draw a considerable power from the supply,...
