It’s hard not to feel some empathy for basic passive components. Why so? While active devices such as processors, power-management ICs, discrete power devices, and RF components get lots of designer (and media) consideration, those humble resistors, capacitors, and magnetics often get far less in comparison. They’re expected to do one thing, do it well, and do it under difficult circumstances, while “stepping aside” to let those active devices shine through. (more…)
