Modeling is the single most important activity in mechatronic system design and this article focuses on some techniques and tools engineers can use to create mathematical models from the various ...

For some very simple circuit, a two-pole RC lowpass filter in this case, we can very easily derive the algebraic transfer function and look at the circuit’s gain and phase properties. An examination ...

Transfer functions are used in the design of electronic systems such as filters, power supplies, and other control systems. Frequency-domain analysis of a transfer function involves the Laplace ...

Having already examined the Colpitts oscillator, we now look at its first cousin, the Clapp oscillator. Please consider the following illustration in Figure 1. There is an R-L-C network of passive ...
