Image source Utmel You have the option to buy two button cell batteries. LR44 and 357. Which one should I choose? You can only make that decision by dissecting the differences between them. Both the technical and the physical differences. In this guide,we are going to compare LR44 vs 357. At the end of it…
Image source Utmel CR2032 and DL2032 are button batteries. They are round and flat. From their outward appearance, they appear to be the same. But from a deep analysis, they are completely different. So, what is the difference between the two? Read on as in this article, we are going to discuss the differences between…
Image source Pinterest Integrated circuits are quite expensive. Keep in mind that the process of designing and manufacturing ICs is quite hectic hence the high cost of these chips. However, there are some ICs that are super expensive. In this article, we are going to outline the most expensive ICs of all time. We will discuss…

It is also known as collector-emitter voltage, or just emitter voltage. The transistor as an amplifier or a switch is one of the most used semiconductor devices in almost every electronic…
A junction-isolated integrated circuit ( IC ) is a special type of semiconductor device that operates in hazardous locations. These devices are used in applications where it’s necessary to protect the electronic components from potentially damaging electrical voltages, electromagnetic fields or ionizing radiation. A junction isolated IC adds another layer of protection by keeping the…
Image Source: Siemens EDA Integrated circuit (IC) design is a complex, multifaceted process that requires specialized software to complete. There are several different types of software out there, each with its own set of benefits and limitations. Depending on your specific needs, you’ll want to choose the right software for the task at hand.…
An integrated circuit is a circuit made up of inseparable components that are electrically coupled together in a way that prevents the IC from being detached for construction or commercial purposes. Such a circuit may be constructed using a variety of technologies. A monolithic integrated circuit is what is currently referred to as an IC.…

It has three positions as opposed to a normal single pole switch which has just on and off positions. If you’re reading this, it means you want to install a 3-way switch in…
Image Source: FreeImages Electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a type of noise that interferes with the operation of electronic devices. ESD, or electrostatic discharge, occurs when voltage becomes separated and builds up as an electrical charge in a device. An ESD event can cause momentary flash, overheating and permanent damage to sensitive integrated circuits. An ESD…
Photo source Pixabay Integrated circuits are found in almost every device or appliance that you own. They’re tiny chips with electronics embedded inside. Integrated circuits make it easy for manufacturers to create devices with multiple functions. In this blog post, we discuss the most common components that use integrated circuits. Let’s take a look…
