What is a PCB Substrate? A PCB (Printed Circuit Board) substrate is the foundation material upon which the electronic components and conductive traces are placed. It provides mechanical support and electrical insulation for the components and interconnections. The substrate is a critical component of a PCB, as its properties directly […]
What is a Stepper Motor? A stepper motor is a brushless DC electric motor that divides a full rotation into a number of equal steps. It moves in discrete increments, or steps, rather than rotating continuously like a conventional DC motor. The motor’s position can be precisely controlled without any […]

How Does an Optocoupler Work? The working principle of an optocoupler is based on the conversion of electrical energy into light energy and then back into electrical energy. The main components of an optocoupler are: Light-emitting diode (LED): This is the input side of the optocoupler. When an electrical signal […]
Introduction to PWM Inverters A PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) inverter is a type of power inverter that converts direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) using a switching technique called pulse width modulation. PWM inverters are widely used in various applications, including solar power systems, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and […]
Introduction to BJT Load Line In the world of electronics, understanding the behavior of transistors is crucial for designing and analyzing circuits. One of the most commonly used transistors is the Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT). To properly analyze and design circuits using BJTs, it’s essential to understand the concept of […]
