Arbitrary waveform generators can generate almost any waveshape. In this video, see how the MP750290 from Multicomp Pro performs. Its key specs are 160 MHz, 14-bit 1.25 Gigasample per second digital-to-analog converter, 1 million point memory, and over 150 built-in waveforms. The episode was Sponsored by Multicomp Pro.
In an ideal world, wires would be ideal. They’d have no resistance, and therefore, no voltage drop. As we all know, our world is far from ideal which means so are our wires. While copper is an excellent conductor, it does have some resistance associated with it. This means when designing DC circuits, very common in the hobby world, you may need to take into account the size of the wire you’re using. David Norton at…
