Darlington transistor is a well known and popular connection using a pair of bipolar transistor junction transistor (BJT), designed for operating like an unified “superbeta” transistor. The following diagram shows the details of the connection. Definition A Darlington transistor can be defined as a connection between two BJTs that allows them to form a single […]

Difference Between Op amp and Comparator
In this article I have explained the main differences between op amp and comparator, and try to understand why op amps are not ideally suited to be used like compartaors. We also learn the main advantages of using compartaor ICs in comparator applications. Basically, you will find many electronic lectures or publications talking about using […]
How to Calculate Capacitors in Series and Parallel
Capacitors connected in series or parallel are very common in electronic circuits. This is done in order to achieve the desired capacitance value and also to make the performance of the circuit accurate. In the following post I have explained how to connect capacitors in series and parallel: Connecting Capacitors in Series When we connect […]
LM567 IC Calculator Tool
We can use this small LM567 calculator tool for finding the right frequency, Rt, and Ct values for our tone decoder circuit. Now we know that this IC works on one simple relation which is, f = 1 / (1.1 × Rt × Ct) So we can see that this frequency depends only on the […]
What is Hysteresis in Electronic Circuits
You might have searched regarding what is hysteresis a number of times through many different posts on different websites, but to no avail. You might have also tried to find a comprehensive as well as an easy explanation regarding the same through various websites. However, the explanations provided over these websites are pretty long and […]
Comparing MOSFETs with BJTransistors – Pros and Cons
The post comprehensively discusses the the similarities and difference between mosfets and BJTs and also their particular pros and cons. Introduction When we talk of electronics, one name becomes extremely related or rather common with this subject and that is the transistors, more precisely the BJT. Electronics is in fact based on these outstanding and indispensable member, without which […]
