What are the top EMI/RFI considerations for connector design and selection?
Connectors link multiple electronic components to transmit power and signals across one or many systems. This article details key connector design considerations, focusing on mitigating … Read about What are the top EMI/RFI considerations for connector design and selection?
How to use convolution to implement filters: part 2
A moving-average filter can address white noise in the time domain but performs poorly in the frequency domain. In part 1 of this series, we defined convolution, denoted by the * symbol, and … Read about How to use convolution to implement filters: part 2
How to use convolution to implement filters: part 1
Convolution is used in a variety of signal-processing applications, including time-domain-waveform filtering. In a recent series on the inverse fast Fourier transform (FFT), we concluded … Read about How to use convolution to implement filters: part 1

How to use convolution to implement filters: part 2
A moving-average filter can address white noise in the time domain but performs poorly in the frequency domain. In part 1 of this series, we defined convolution, denoted by the * symbol, and looked at a simple geometrical example of how it operates to produce a new function y(t) from two given functions, f(t) and […]
APEC 2025 test equipment: oscilloscopes and probes
Oscilloscopes and probes play a vital role for engineers designing and testing power electronics. Delivering electrical power to analog and digital circuits and systems is more than just DC measurements. That’s because nearly all power-converter circuits use switching techniques to maximize efficiency. Silicon carbide (SiC and gallium nitride (GaN) transistors, with their higher voltage and […]
