fun bit of trivia: for incredibly high currents, an IGBT can actually be more efficient than a MOSFET, because in an IGBT the conduction loss is proportional to Ic·log(Ic), and in a MOSFET the conduction loss is proportional to Id²

the constant of proportionality is way, *way* smaller for a good power MOSFET though

the resistor is undoubtably the most common component used, which is why we prefer the european symbol for them over the american one.

a rectangle is way quicker to draw and takes fewer strokes of the pencil than a long zigzag

i find it amusing that artifacts and inscriptions that show a complete alphabet (probably some kind of didactic purpose?) are called abecedaria

it's literally just a-b-c-d-thing

is there *any* type of electronics test equipment that HP/Agilent/Keysight/whatever-they're-calling-themselves-this-year doesn't make?

found a note Rosemary left me last night saying "things just remind us of music by name a lot and that's okay"... I think I was feeling self-conscious about something i don't remember that well -F
