There are many circuits for low voltage regulators. For higher voltages, such as supplies for valve circuits, the situation is different. That’s why we decided to design this simple regulator that can ...

Process automation projects are most often driven by bottom line results, return on investment and an appropriate value position or justification. All of this can be accomplished with the use of a ...

Abstract: This paper presents a high speed protection circuit to avoid IGBT failure caused by the short-circuit conditions such as hard switching fault (HSF) and fault under load (FUL). When a short ...

Circuit protection devices safeguard electrical systems by interrupting overloads, short circuits, and faults. Essential in residential, commercial, and industrial applications, they enhance safety, ...

This simple circuit adds short-circuit load protection to a basic driver such as the output of a simple logic gate, while allowing it to control a high-power load operating at a much-higher voltage ...

Figure 1 This 4 to 18V-input, 12V-output SEPIC has short-circuit protection. Figure 2 The short-circuit input and output current for the circuit of Figure 1 differ at different voltages.

Circuit protection, at its simplest, is the intentional addition of a ‘weak link’ in an electrical circuit. This link will be broken in the event of a fault – whether that’s high temperature, ...

Circuit protection has proven useful, but meeting the increasingly sophisticated industrial and commercial requirements can be a challenge. An overload or short circuit in a fuse or mini circuit ...

Now that autos are moving toward high-powered battery voltage, the industry is turning new attention toward making sure the flow can stop on a dime when needed. Power management company Eaton Corp.
