The Loop really impressed us back at CES…2007. A circular remote that functioned a lot like the Wiimote, the promising Loop turned heads before disappearing into ...

Steve Sandler explains what every engineer should know about ‘non-invasive’ stability assessments. The non-invasive stability assessment is a method that uses an output impedance measurement to ...

Good building mechanical design requires a firm grasp of the mechanical engineering fundamentals (thermodynamics, psychrometrics, the fan laws, etc.). The same can be said about the BAS design needed ...

With the ever-increasing complexity of today’s printed circuit boards, the many voltages required to properly power all the integrated circuit loads are now managed by a range of point of load (POL) ...

Today on Hackaday Dictionary, we’re going to talk about the two basic types of control systems: open-loop and closed-loop. We’ll describe the differences between them and explore the various ...

While current control and PWM switching play the most direct role in driving brushless DC motors, the motion profile and ...
