If you have ever seen the bright dot of an oscilloscope moving left to right (set to a slow sweep) then that's what is actually taking place on a CRT. That bright dot is very easy to pick out with a...

Write more. Lots more. I've no idea what ode45 or what you are supplying it. My crystal ball never has worked well. So help us out by writing as much detail as you can.

The book you want to buy and read is "Optoelectronics: Fiber-Optics Applications Manual" from Hewlett-Packard, 2nd edition. I may have bought up most of them, all I could find at the time. My...

The facts I see: (1) indicator lights, but no information about what they indicate; (2) reverse polarity protection on the input, which suggests it's not AC but has a DC bias to it or is pulsed DC --...

Here's how to perform the computation. RS, ISAT, and ETA are parameters for the diode. VT is the thermal voltage. N is the number of series diodes. VCC is the voltage rail. The LTspice simulation text...

Why not just write a little software that uses a loop from N=1 resistor to N=?? number of resistors and that generates all of the possible directed graphs? The math for solving them is trivial. I could...

Read and study the areas you care about. Start with one topic, go as far as you want in that topic, then move to another. In this case, I guess you should start with low power AC to DC power supplies...
