As a fundamental concept of electronic design, voltage drop ranks highly as one to understand well. I particularly appreciate when industry folks come up with creative ways to get the point across.

Fig 1. This basic VCO/waveform generator IC circuit includes a voltage follower loop (formed with IC1) and symmetry feedback loop (IC3) to eliminate an asymmetric duty cycle, which would cause ...

At one time a relatively infrequent occurrence, voltage drop is now a major impediment to reliability at advanced nodes. Decades ago, voltage drop was only an issue for very large and high-speed ...

Series voltage drop is the progressive loss of voltage that occurs when feeding a string of parallel-connected loads. It's of particular concern when feeding a string of roadway, walkway, or parking ...

Inevitably, industrial facilities are going to have 460VAC, 3-phase motor loads. And, of course, since voltage drop is considered mainly a performance issue, maximum voltage drop rules on a circuit ...

As VLSI technology scales to 90 nanometers and beyond, ASIC vendors increasingly see power grid integrity issues in their designs and in the field, for two primary reasons. First, deep-submicron ...

There are many cases where a power supply needs an internal current-limiter function, usually built using a current sensor, a control circuit, and a pass transistor. The current sensor itself can be a ...
