The digital voltmeter is the best basic tool for electrical troubleshooting, because it's calibrated and exact. But remember, the digital voltmeter can't detect a high-resistance fault if the circuit ...

Electrical engineers have manually identified circuit faults using multimeter testing and visual inspections, spending countless hours measuring currents and inspecting for soldering defects.

Lighting a string of LEDs at a constant brightness requires driving it with a regulated current. A boost converter is commonly used to step up the voltage to a level high enough to bias the LEDs on ...
