Increased electrification in vehicles is changing the way driver assistance systems are designed, says Yang Wang, with high-side switches increasingly used for resistive, capacitive and inductive ...

Despite all of the attention devoted to low voltage, low operating, and quiescent currents, and low power in general, the reality is that many applications require more power during real “work” as ...

Modern high-frequency amplifiers are a cranky group that lose performance when driving capacitive and reactive loads. Fortunately, you can use some simple tricks to pacify poorly loaded amplifiers.

Kepco is pleased to introduce an option for its 200W and 400W BOP models to optimize their ability to drive capacitive loads. This option (designated by the suffix "C") makes the BOP more suitable for ...

Power factor correction uses parallel connected capacitors to oppose the effects of inductive elements and reduce the phase shift between the voltage and current. Power factor correction is a ...

STMicroelectronics’ latest high-side switches, the IPS2050H and the IPS2050H-32, have been designed to permit two programmable current-limit values for smart driving of capacitive loads that draw high ...

Recent studies indicate the level of knowledge and implementation of motor system energy-efficiency measures is low. A plethora of information on motor system design, best practices, purchasing, and ...

Turning on a power source into a highly capacitive load can wreak havoc on circuit elements and protection devices. Foldback current limiting allows circuit elements to withstand transient currents ...

Responding to market needs, server technology has rapidly advanced, delivering high-density, highly reliable computing without the massive harmonics issues inherent with older power supplies. One ...
