My first engineering manager taught me to make sure that my power supply design would work first on paper and then I could breadboard it. That was in 1973 before there were high-integration ICs and ...

As global energy demand surges—driven by AI-hungry data centers, advanced manufacturing, and electrified ...

You’re undoubtedly familiar with power-switching devices such as the venerable and still very viable insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT). An enhanced variation is the B-TRAN bipolar junction ...

Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFETs exhibit higher blocking voltage, lower on state resistance and higher thermal conductivity than their silicon counterparts. SiC MOSFETs are designed and essentially ...

Power modules are high-power switching circuits that convert DC- in AC-currents in electric vehicles, renewable energy, and many more applications. New materials [14] and device technologies [14], ...

In Part 1 of this two-part series, we explored PLC basics and voltage sag susceptibilities. In this segment, we present PLC voltage sag test results along with guidelines for making PLC systems more ...

Current simulation and verification methods for power modules are time-consuming. Each domain has specific solutions based on finite elements analysis, computational fluid dynamics and solvers for ...

You may have seen the Ruideng range of programmable power supply modules from China: small and relatively inexpensive switch-mode buck converters, with microprocessor control and a front panel ...
