Abstract: In this paper, an RC relaxation oscillator exhibiting robust performance over an extended temperature and supply range is proposed. By incorporating a digitally-assisted calibration loop, ...

Abstract: We study bipartite synchronization in Schmitt–trigger relaxation oscillator (STRO) networks with signed threshold injection. Under weak coupling, the hybrid RC–Schmitt dynamics reduce to a ...

Multifunctional fluidic units generate coordinated motion and sensing in soft robots by combining actuation, switching, and oscillation in one module, reducing reliance on electronic control.

Try an experiment. Next time you are in a room with someone, ask them to name everything in the room. Only certain kinds of people will say “air” or “light.” For most people, those are just givens, ...

In normal times, between work, family life, and recreation, it can be easy to forget to carve out some peaceful personal space — but when a crisis strikes, the need to let go of stress can be crucial.

When you think of neon, you might think of neon signs or the tenth element, a noble gas. But there was a time when neon bulbs like the venerable NE-2 were the 555 of their day, with a seemingly ...

Editor’s Note: This DI is a two-part series. Part 1 shows how to make an oscillator with a pitch that is proportional to a control voltage. Part 2 shows how to modify the circuit for use with higher ...

For a while now, we’ve been talking about transformers, frontier neural network logic models, as a transformative technology, no pun intended. But now, these attention mechanisms have other competing ...
