Recently, frequent Design Idea (DI) author Christopher Paul showcased an innovative and high performance true-two-wire current source using a depletion mode MOSFET as the pass device in “A precision, ...
Current sources are widely used in industrial control systems to transport analog process signals over long distances, but they are less widely used than voltage sources. This post loosely reviews the ...
Performance specs can be trumped, but elegance persists. Consider the most basic task in industrial control: driving sensors and bridges. It doesn’t matter if you’re dealing with a strain-gauge bridge ...
