Recently, frequent Design Idea (DI) author Christopher Paul showcased an innovative and high performance true-two-wire current source using a depletion mode MOSFET as the pass device in “A precision, ...

The components provide reliable inrush current limiters performance for switch-mode supplies, frequency converters, photovoltaic inverters, UPS units, and soft-start motors. TDK Corporation has ...

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. has introduced a new series of insulated, surface-mount inrush current limiting positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistors. Designed to increase board-level ...

Attorney General Pam Bondi pledges to go after "hate speech," saying there's no place for it after Charlie Kirk’s assassination. But that isn't U.S. law under the First Amendment, and Kirk himself ...

As graphics processing units (GPUs) and other artificial-intelligence (AI) chips push the power limits of data centers, it’s becoming vital to prevent the current racing into them from overloading the ...

Abstract: The transformer inrush current has been a potential threat in wind farms connected modular multilevel converter based high-voltage direct current (WF-MMC-HVDC) system due to the low ...

Abstract: This paper proposes an analysis of the inrush load current and a design of the inrush current limiter circuit for a low-voltage DC (LVDC) distribution system. Due to the absence of a ...

Primary concerns with battery-operated devices include battery protection from inrush and short circuit currents caused by connected load, and load protection from voltage spikes when battery load ...
