Over many years, RF-MEMS have been a hot topic in research at the technology
and device level. In particular, various kinds of mechanical Si-MEMS resonators
and piezoelectric BAW (bulk acoustic wave) resonators have been developed. The
BAW technology has made its way to commercial products for passi ...
HIS IS THE THIRD —and most likely the last—book
in the series on information technology for
energy managers and web based energy infor-
mation and control systems. This book concentrates on
web based enterprise energy and building automation
systems, and serves as a capstone volume in this series. ...
The continuous progress in modern power device technology is increasingly
supported by power-specific modeling methodologies and dedicated simulation
tools. These enable the detailed analysis of operational principles on the the device
and on the system level; in particular, they allow the designer ...
Radio frequency identifi cation (RFID) technology is a wireless communication
technology that enables users to uniquely identify tagged objects or people.
RFID is rapidly becoming a cost-effective technology. This is in large part
due to the efforts of Wal-Mart and the Department of Defense (DoD) to ...
LIKE SO MANY OTHERS , THIS BOOK WAS WRITTEN BECAUSE WE COULDN ’ T FIND ONE LIKE IT . We
needed something to hand to all of those people who have come to us asking for “a good
book to read on RFID.” When we looked for candidates we found some great books, but
most were aimed at electrical engineer ...
If one examines the current literature on GPS receiver design, most of it is quite a
bit above the level of the novice. It is taken for granted that the reader is already at a
fairly high level of understanding and proceeds from there. This text will be an
attempt to take the reader through the conc ...
Thank you for purchasing the Earthshine Design
Arduino Starter Kit. You are now well on your way in
your journey into the wonderful world of the Arduino
and microcontroller electronics.
This book will guide you, step by step, through using
the Starter Kit to learn about the Arduino hardware,
softwar ...
I can remember buying my first electronic calculator. I was teaching a graduate level statistics course and I
had to have a calculator with a square root function. Back in the late 1960s, that was a pretty high-end
requirement for a calculator. I managed to purchase one at the “educational discount ...
Building a robot and enabling it to sense its environment is a wonderful way to
take your Arduino knowledge to the next level. In writing this book, I have brought
together my love for invention and my experience with electronics, robotics and
microcontrollers. I hope you have as much pleasure build ...
This book is an outgrowth of a course developed at Stanford University over
the past five years. It is suitable as a self-contained textbook for second-level
undergraduates or for first-level graduate students in almost every field that
employs quantit ...
