A current source is a critical component in most integrated and discrete circuits and can be described as an electric circuit that generates a steady flow of electrons for a given period of time no ...

A simple method of charging a battery from a higher voltage battery is shown in the circuit below to the left. Only one resistor is needed to set the desired charging current and is calculated by ...

It isn’t unusual to expect a precisely regulated voltage in an electronic project, but what about times when you need a precise current? Over on EDN, prolific [Stephen Woodward] explains how to use a ...
