Coaxial cables are essential transmission lines in many RF/microwave applications. Coaxial cables are usually reliable, but sometimes coaxial cables can develop unseen faults that may be anywhere in their length. Finding those faults can often be challenging, typically requiring the use of time-domain reflectometry (TDR) which operates much like a radar system. Analysis of the reflected →

A solid state relay (SSR) is an industrial component used for interfacing low voltage control signals to high current mains voltage loads. The SSR may be designed to switch either AC or DC to the load. It serves the same function as an electromechanical relay, but has no moving parts. You can control SSRs easily →

Stripboard is the generic name (also known as Veroboard) for a widely used type of electronics prototyping board characterized by a 0.1 inch (2.54 mm) regular (rectangular) grid of holes, with wide parallel strips of copper cladding running in one direction all the way across one side of the board. Stripboard is available from many vendors. Stripboards →
