Feedback and compensation loops/network w/ opamps and how they are used in switching circuits (Like power supplies). Time of compensation (type 1, 2 and 3).

Proper times to use a Microcontroller vs. a FPGA. Advantages/disadvantages and primary differences.

C vs C++ in microcontroller design.

PCB layout tools, compare and contrast. Best for beginners and advanced.... best bang for your buck.

Capture and sim tools review and opinion.

Book reviews... so many books in the electronics world... Books regarding programming, power supply design, layout, etc... good ones you have and read?

How you tackle writing a program... steps taken, flow charts, pseudo code?

Plenty of more ideas... just a few for now

Keep up the great work!

Given the interest on power supply design (i know there is that thread on converting an ATX supply into a lab/bench psu) and my own small project building a powersupply from an old stereo-amplifier, and other peoples interest, i would love to see a video on PSU design like Strube09 suggested

Proper times to use a Microcontroller vs. a FPGA. Advantages/disadvantages and primary differences.

Throw CPLD and PAL into that comparison as well. What's best for energy consumption, speed, etc...

I'd also like to see something about electronics in extreme environments (outer space, humid/wet, hot or cold extremes)
