For a computer system to recognize a memory module, the module needs to have a chip on it that communicates the specifications of the module to the system. A system’s basic input/output system (BIOS) may depend on serial presence detect (SPD) data to properly configure and optimize the memory sub system.

Trade-off between best attenuation effectiveness and minimum leakage current.
Network filters (EMC filters) are often regarded as a Blackbox and, justifiably, the user doesnt concern himself with its inner workings. However, for the effective use of filters, it is advantageous to have some background knowledge. The...

Two methods can be used to re-design loop-gain digitally for the power supply converters: digital redesign method and direct digital design method. In the digital redesign method, the controller is designed in the continuous-time domain, and then discretized into the discrete-time form.
In the direct digital design...
