Here's the addition of Figure 2.36:\$\quad\quad\quad\$The assumption is that \$\phi_{_1}\$ is in-phase with the input and that \$\phi_{_2}\$ exactly out-of-phase with the input, \$180^\circ\$ out of...

Broadcast AM in the US is 187 m to 561 m. An optimal antenna for 630 m (not so different) might look like this (YouTube video by ham radio experts). Insane! But a lot to learn about antennas can be...

Well, it doesn't. On the left side, the part within parentheses does result in (excessive precision, my apologies) 21.023796 at +2.72631099 degrees. And that is about what they write. But the left side...

atod, What exactly have you used "trying to understand the math"??? You don't mention a paper or anything else. So far as I can tell, you have only just heard about the idea and feel a need to learn...

user, There is one vague sentence and one schematic. No transfer function between the control input and the LED current, or between the LED current and the LDR resistance. You may have an optical head...

I'd at least like to see your "conventional approach" that didn't work as a starting point. Otherwise, I've no idea what you tried.

Nonytg, All transistors (and I assume those modeled in the simulator) include bulk emitter, collector, and base resistances. There is also the Early Effect and details regarding \$\beta\$ variations...

@g36 !! Well. So I managed to guess the only possible problem?? What about the PNP? Does the 2N3096 (or some other PNP) have the same problem?

I'll start with the diagram of steps:The last one, H, will work out to \$1.5\:\Omega\$. That's easy to test out.The process is:A to B: Replace the two series pairs with their single-resistor...

Accuracy calibration is tricky. For temperature, the only "fairly cheap" and "kind of accurate" method is a well-mixed ice water bath using pure water (impurities can have a huge impact.) There are...

Agreed about the \$\text{EM}_1\$ model being the better way to see it. It's better to start right than to get cartoon ideas that will then only have to be demolished to make room, later. (Nature...

It's really pretty easy to understand in fairly good precision if you would take the trouble to understand what a very thin base region does in the bipolar transistor. The original 1954 Ebers-Moll...

Your question isn't clear (to me.) One possibility that comes to mind is that you want to correctly DC bias a circuit that involves avalanching. But you seem confident in such skills. Another is that...

Ebers-Moll viewI'm going to completely avoid cartoon (toy) ideas about saturation and just use the first, simple, non-linear model that was described by Ebers and Moll in 1954. It's a simple DC model...

It's just a rule of thumb. It isn't provable through rigorous theory. You can adjust it per use. But having \$R_2\$ of some value is a good idea, just the same, to help remove stored charge in the...

@minghierid I believe that the general problem of applying NAND gates to arbitrary logic is NP-complete. Aka hard. You might also examine this paper . That said, have a look at this minimization for...

Emad Firoozi, I already did all the work, and much more, here. The power supply there is higher, admitted. And your supply would require redesign. But you also don't need the output stage. A little bit...
