Don’t despair! We are getting close to a loan program that will help all engineers. Hold on to your hats kids.

I went online to pay my student loan bill and observed that my loan service provider recently added the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program to its loan forgiveness list. What does this mean? This means slowly but surely, Congress, whom has…

As a college student, I worked with various pieces of lab equipment depending upon the facet of engineering being studied. The one thing I remember was that most of the equipment was antiquated and outdated. Thus, faulty and poor readings or output signals were produced. In one particular lab, we used the HP 54600B 100 MHz along with the Wavetek 100 MHz synthesized arbitrary waveform generator model 395 and the Agilent 33120A 16 Mhz function/arbitrary waveform generator…

Founded in 1946, Keithley Instruments, a Tektronix company (which specializes in ac items), was purchased by the Danaher Co., in 2010. Keithley specializes in power supplies, dc items and DMMs (digital multimeters). This company designs solutions for test and measurement needs. In electrical measurement solutions, its research in production test technology and through partnerships has developed innovative instruments and products in global communications, semiconductors, components…

This powerpoint presentation discusses the fundamentals of power MOSFETS. Used mostly in integrated circuits, power MOSFETS is widely popular for its ability to handle high power levels. From diodes (the simplest form of a semiconductor), to parasitic capacitance, these illustrations and schematics are created to assist in clarifying the basics in power MOSFETS.…
