Basic Introduction to the Types of Capacitors
16 October 2025
A variety of capacitors are used in the manufacture of electronic devices, and they play different roles in the circuit. There are many types of capacitors, such as fixed capacitors, variable capacitors, and trimmer capacitors, and fixed capacitors can be divided into ceramics, mica, paper, film, and electrolytic capacitors according to the different dielectric.
How to read Resistors Color Code?
16 October 2025
We can read the resistance value according to the resistors color code because of the use of four color bands or five color bands or six color bands on the resistors to indicate the resistance value. The color information representing the resistance value can be read at once from any angle.
Introduction to Tantalum Capacitors
16 October 2025
Tantalum capacitors are products with small volume, high capacitance and excellent performance. They were first developed by Bell Labs in the United States in 1956. They come in a variety of shapes and are made into small and chip components suitable for surface mounting, which are not only used in military communications, aerospace and other fields but also used in industrial control, film and television equipment, communication instruments and other products.
What are the Types and Dielectric of Ceramic Capacitors?
16 October 2025
A ceramic capacitor is also called a monolithic capacitor, whose dielectric material is ceramic. According to the different ceramic materials, it can be divided into two types: low-frequency ceramic capacitors and high-frequency ceramic capacitors. According to the structure, it can be divided into wafer capacitor, tubular capacitor, rectangular capacitor, a chip capacitor, feedthrough ceramic capacitor and so on.
Photoresistor Basics: Types, Principles and Applications
16 October 2025
The article introduces the photoresistor’s main characteristics and principles including the working principle and structural principle. There are three types of photoresistor: ultraviolet photoresistors, infrared photoresistors, visible light photoresistors. Dimming circuit and light switch are the two applications of the photoresistor.
A Guide to AVR Microcontroller [PDF]
15 October 2025
AVR microcontroller is an enhanced RISC (Reduced Instruction Set CPU) high-speed 8-bit microcontroller with built-in Flash developed by ATMEL in 1997.
The Introduction to QFN Package
15 October 2025
Hello everyone, I am Rose. Today I will introduce QFN Package to you. QFN (Quad Flat No-leads Package), one of the surface-mount packages.QFN package does not have any extension pins at all.
Neural Processing Unit (NPU) Explained
15 October 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.
What is Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)?
15 October 2025
An inertial measurement unit (IMU) is a device that measures three-dimensional linear and angular motion without an external reference, i.e., a device that measures the three-axis attitude angle (or angular rate) and acceleration of an object.
The Difference and Application of SPI, UART, I2C Communication
15 October 2025
Hello everyone, I am Rose. Welcome to the new post today. Communication between electronic devices is like communication between humans. Both parties need to speak the same language. In electronic products, these languages are called communication protocols. This article will make some comparisons between SPI, UART, and I2C.
