Abstract: This work presents a fast, low power and simple structure noise-based true random number generator (TRNG) using discrete components and devices such as resistor., capacitor, diode., ...

It’s rather amazing how many electronic components you can buy right now are not quite the genuine parts that they are sold as. Outside of dedicated platforms like Mouser, Digikey and LCSC you pretty ...

A Planet Analog article, “2N3904: Why use a 60-year-old transistor?” by Bill Schweber, inspired some interest in this old transistor and how it’s commonly used, and if any uncommon uses might exist.

Arduino library for parsing and decoding MOD, WAV, MP3, FLAC, MIDI, AAC, and RTTL files and playing them on an I2S DAC or even using a software-simulated delta-sigma DAC with dynamic 32x-128x ...

The transistor is probably the most important invention in electronic engineering and the basis for nearly all integrated circuits (ICs). The transistor is a three-terminal electronic device that can ...

A friend recently sent me an email noting that the classic 2N3904 bipolar transistor was now 60 years old. Since its “birth” was before I got involved with basic electronics, that callout was ...

Abstract: In this paper, we have designed a Chaotic Colpitt's oscillator using transistor 2N3904. The circuit simulation using Multisim 2001 is also presented. The simulation results show that Colpitt ...

Recently, we thought of building a simple FM receiver circuit, so, like always, we started googling for possible circuits that can be used to fulfil our requirements, and as expected, we found a lot ...
