In retrocomputing circles, it’s often the case that the weirder and rarer the machine, the more likely it is to attract attention. And machines don’t get much weirder than the DEC Rainbow 100-B, sporting as it does both Z80 and 8088 microprocessors and usable as either a VT100 terminal or as a PC with either

Murata Electronics today announced the availability of two new multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) for automotive safety-critical applications. The 0402-inch size (1.0×0.5mm) NFM15HC105D0G3D is the world’s smallest three-terminal low parasitic inductance (ESL) MLCC. The NFM18HC106D0G3L is also a three-terminal low-ESL MLCC but delivers the world’s highest capacitance of 10µF in a 0603 (1.6×0.8mm) package. The NFM15HC105D0G3D is approximately 60 percent smaller
SMALL HIGH-CAPACITANCE THREE-TERMINAL MLCCS TARGET AUTOMOTIVE USES Continue Reading
Story Throughout my years of experience, I’ve created numerous timers and encountered a plethora of mobile apps. However, when I found myself in need of a straightforward solution to seamlessly automate the on-off cycle of a circuit I was actively developing, none of the available options proved to be the right fit. Consequently, I took
