The circuit is designed for power supply protection by limiting the amount of maximum output current to prevent any further damage to take place inside the power supply as well as the external circuit ...

A new method of circuit protection allows designers greater flexibility and increased reliability while reducing the time to market. The long-accepted assumption that hundreds of amperes and thousands ...

Adding a clamp circuit to the well known current-limiter protects the "pass" transistor from over-currents when load faults occur. Most readers are probably familiar with two-terminal current-limiting ...

There are many cases where a power supply needs an internal current-limiter function, usually built using a current sensor, a control circuit, and a pass transistor. The current sensor itself can be a ...

Startup surges can damage power systems. These inrush current limiters help control spikes, protect equipment, & save energy ...

For the first time, a superconducting current limiter based on YBCO strip conductors has now been installed at a power plant. At the Boxberg power plant of Vattenfall, the current limiter protects the ...

On April 14, in Jinchang city, Gansu province, as soon as the command was given, an artificially simulated single-phase instantaneous grounding short-circuit arc was instantly triggered at the ...

Power operational amplifiers (POPs) are becoming increasingly common in control circuitry. Power operational amplifiers (POPs) are becoming increasingly common in control circuitry. Their primary ...

If you got your start in electronics sometime after 1980 your first project might well have been to light up an LED. Microcontroller projects often light up an LED, too, and a blinking LED is ...
