Impulse relay is a viable alternative for lighting control from multiple locations. In modernistic houses and apartments, lighting schemes to control lights from two or more locations are becoming ...

Electronics engineers often usephotovoltaic-module simulatorsto test dc/dc-power converters, inverters,or MPPT (maximum-power-point-tracking)-control techniques. The use ofthese simulators lets you ...

An overload or short circuit in a fuse or mini circuit breaker can lead to undersupply or failure of an entire 24-V dc power-supply system. Selectivity protection using an electronic fuse offers a ...

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 ...

This course introduces more advanced concepts of switched-mode converter circuits. Realization of the power semiconductors in inverters or in converters having bidirectional power flow is explained.

To set the stage for this discussion let me propose this scenario: imagine yourself as an astronaut sitting in the crew module of the NASA Orion spacecraft. You are stepping through your final ...
