Part 1 of this series focuses on high-performance electronic loads for testing power supplies that have low output voltage and high current. It describes the necessity for special electronic loads, ...

Resonant-mode topologies offer many benefits over traditional buck, boost, and flyback solutions. These include soft-switching, higher operating frequencies, higher power density, and higher ...

Electrical and electronic circuits are around us. From our mobile phones to security systems, electronic circuits are everywhere. Designing a circuit follows a step-by-step procedure. Most of the time ...

The general approach to an electronic load is to use a transistor across the input terminals so the current flows from drain (collector) to source (emitter). A resistance is affected by causing a ...

Confusion continues to surround the use, performance, and NEC requirements of isolated ground (IG) wiring. Can it be used anywhere, or is it restricted to electronic load equipment? Does it really ...

The project is designed to shut down the power supply when it is overloaded. Conventional circuit breaker like MCB based is on thermal bimetal lever trip mechanism. The project is designed to shut ...
