Passive Components Aren’t Really So Passive (Part 3): PCBs

PCB flaws and errors that are usually hidden, or at least disguised, can introduce passive errors into IC performance. To understand how these errors occur, though, we must first examine the compositi...

Passive Components Aren’t Really So Passive (Part 2): Resistors

Resistors are called passive because they don’t have gain or control power like semiconductors or other active devices. But they can, and do, change the signal in unexpected ways because they have par...

Passive Components Aren’t Really So Passive (Part 1): Capacitors

Capacitors, resistors, inductors, connectors, and even the PCB are called passive because they don’t seem to consume power. But these apparently passive components can, and do, change the signal in un...
