- 50 World Famous Sensor Manufacturing Companies
24 July 2020
In recent years, the world sensor market has been developing stably, and companies all over the world are racing to accelerate the development and industrialization of sensors. Eastern Europe, Asia Pacific and Canada have become the fastest-growing regions in the sensor market, while the United States, Germany, and Japan still occupy the largest sensor market. Here we’re going to introduce the top 50 well-known sensor manufacturing companies in Europe, North America and Asia. - What is a Microcontroller?
23 May 2025
A microcontroller is a sophisticated single-chip microcomputer that integrates all essential computing elements onto a single integrated circuit (IC). Microcontrollers are mainly used for automatic control equipment in the fields of automobile air conditioning and automatic machinery. Microcontrollers are widely used in various industrial and civil embedded systems due to their small size, low power consumption, and ease of use. - 13 kinds of sensors in mobile phones and what are recorded by the sensors
29 October 2021
The sensor in a phone refers to the components of the phone that can be felt by the chip, such as distance, light, temperature, brightness, and pressure. These sensors are getting smaller and smaller, their performance is increasing stronger, and their cost is getting lower and lower, just like all electronic components. - Varistor: Definition, Function, Working and Testing
03 April 2025
A varistor is a device with a non-linear volt-ampere characteristic. When the voltage applied to the varistor is lower than its threshold value, the current flowing through it is extremely small, which is equivalent to a resistor with infinite resistance, vice versa. The most common varistor is a metal oxide varistor (MOV). - How many Transistors in a CPU?
15 April 2025
Transistors are the basic building blocks that regulate the operation of computers, mobile phones, and all other modern electronic circuits and is the basic unit of the CPU. Transistors can be packaged independently or in a small area. Integrated circuits can accommodate 100 million or more transistors. - What is the Difference between MOM, MIM and MOS Capacitors?
17 April 2025
This article mainly introduces the structure, principle, advantages and disadvantages of MOM, MIM and MOS capacitors and the difference between them. - What is a variable capacitor?
16 April 2025
A variable capacitor is a capacitor whose capacitance can be adjusted within a certain range. When the relative effective area between the pole metal plate or the distance between the plates is changed, its capacitance changes accordingly. It is usually used as a tuning capacitor in a radio receiving circuit. Its two major types are Air dielectric variable capacitor and Solid dielectric variable capacitor. It is widely used in tuning and amplification, frequency selective oscillation, and other circuits. - Neural Processing Unit (NPU) Explained
22 April 2025
Neural Network Processing Unit (NPU) adopts a “data-driven parallel computing” architecture, which is particularly good at processing large-scale multimedia data such as video and images. This paper analyzes the working principle, architectural features, differences with CPU/GPU, and application scenarios of NPU in modern smart devices. - The Evolution History of Storage Devices
06 October 2021
Some people say that "most technology products are destined to be open for only a short period of time." Today, I intend to talk about the evolutionary history of storage devices in the age of technology. - Clamp Diodes: Principles, Functions, and Applications
27 October 2020
Clamp means jamming the position. In circuit, is means controlling the voltage. Clamp Diode is a kind of diode that is used to limit the potential of a certain point in the circuit, controlling the input voltage to a peak value to a predetermined voltage, without changing the signal. The working principlealso the unidirectional conductivity of the diode. - What is a Delay Circuit? 6 Types of Delay Circuits Explained
28 March 2025
In the digital circuit design, it is sometimes necessary to delay a signal for a period of time and another signal. The typical delay circuit is a string guide, and the delay time is the sum of the delay of each guide. - Top 10 OSAT (Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test) Companies
