This whitepaper compares single phase and three phase circuits from the component count, stress level and complexity standpoints. The document shows that on most cases, single phase circuits are the ...

NOJA Power highlights how modern Automatic Circuit Reclosers such as its OSM single triple ACR can assist utilities in protection schemes for isolated or high-impedance networks to minimize disruption ...

Protecting single-phase power circuits is the job of a combination surge protector and EMI/RFI filter device. The Trabtech surge filter includes a coordinated TVSS and EMI/RFI filter circuit, ...

Green point-of-load DC-DC converter designs need high efficiency and low IQ, so what is the optimal POL converter for embedded systems. Most embedded systems are powered via a 48V backplane. This ...

According to the IEEE Standard Dictionary of Electrical and Electronic Terms, power factor (PF) is defined as the ratio of the circuit power (watts) to the circuit volt-amperes. This is described by ...

Switching ac power on and off has been a challenge since Edison and others started switching power more than 125 years ago. Now, a solid-state relay (SSR) uses a patented zero-voltage crossing ...
