Building a Circulator out of Ceramics

Introduction During my time as a PhD student, I had an opportunity to work in the laboratory of ceramic technologies. I got to produce various electronic components based on so-called low temperature co-fired ceramics, or LTCC. Although  it’s been more than 2 years since I left that lab, I found some time to reflect back … Continue reading Building a Circulator out of Ceramics

Playing with an LMG670 power analyzer

Introduction Recently, I got my hands on a not-every-day piece of electronic instrumentation, a so-called power analyzer LMG670 by company ZES Zimmer. I was told “it’s just a big multimeter” and I could use it to test power efficiency of our system. Power analyzer allows us to measure voltage, current, power and all relatable values on one, two … Continue reading Playing with an LMG670 power analyzer

Playing with a signal demodulator

Last week I got a Christmas present! Actually, it’s not a present, it’s a tool for work. But it is a brand new spectrum analyzer! Actually, it’s not brand new, it’s at least 15 years old. The basement guy found it in the company’s basement and brought it to my office to see if I … Continue reading Playing with a signal demodulator

Building an ARM based microcomputer at home

Introduction Having my reflow solder oven finished, I couldn’t wait to see how far can I challenge it with complex circuit boards and tiny components. I decided to build a system with components that are tricky to solder, such as BGA and QFN packages. Not interested in designing the whole circuit on my own, I … Continue reading Building an ARM based microcomputer at home

Remember the memories

Remember the memories

Introduction I’ve been trying to sort out all those computer memories in some meaningful order in my head for some time and it turned out to be not an easy job. Partly because of my head and partly because of all the various memory types out there: volatile, non-volatile, read-only, RAM, DRAM, SDRAM, permanent, Flash…does … Continue reading Remember the memories
