Figure 1 The addition of a simple diode in the emitter circuit yields the symmetric waveform in Figure 4. Figure 2 This amplifier circuit produces the distorted waveform in Figure 3. Diode D 1 ...

If you're playing rock guitar, chances are that at some point you're going to want to use overdrive or distortion effects. Saturated, gnarly guitar tones are synonymous with rock music, and every ...

Distortion which distorts the sound of electric guitar does not distort (distortion), it creates a unique tone color called "guy awaan", and it is indispensable in genres such as rock. A movie that ...

A subject rarely found in circuit design textbooks is the matter of nonlinear junction capacitance, especially reverse-bias junction capacitance, also called depletion capacitance. When it is ...

The high internal gain of single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) operating in Geiger mode allows the quantum limit of detection to be approached. This offers a significantly improved sensitivity for ...
