Analog input protection for high performance signal chains is often a pain point for system designers. There is typically a significant trade-off between analog performance (leakage, on resistance, ...

From traditional fuses to eFuses, understanding the advantages, limitations, and use cases of each technology helps engineers ...

To be competitive, some electrical contractors often supply low-voltage (LV) service entrance switchboards and switchgear that meet the minimum safety requirements of the National Electrical Code (NEC ...

If the service is a solidly grounded wye of more than 150V to ground but not more than 1,000V phase to phase, each service disconnect of 1,000A or more must have ground-fault protection [230.95]. This ...

Most switching power-supply controllers provide non-latching fault protection. Satisfying a requirement for a latchoff response to a fault often requires the addition of excessive and redundant ...

For modern distribution protection, Negative Phase Sequence (NPS) Protection is often relegated in favor of common elements such as Overcurrent (OC) or Earth Fault (EF), but NPS is an incredibly ...

A DC/DC converter’s primary function is to protect the application. In the simplest level, the protection consists of matching the load to the primary power supply and stabilizing the output voltage ...
