Switching algebra is easily visualized using switches since there are only two values: on and off, or true and false. In digital systems we represent these as 1 and 0, respectively. There are only two ...

Switching has almost always meant “hard" switching, which is simple but comes with all kinds of electrical and thermal stresses. Soft switching employs more sophisticated design to reduce stresses and ...

The critical role of snubber circuits in minimizing ringing and overshoot. How snubber circuitry is evolving to adapt to trends in power electronics, like the rising interest in wide-bandgap ...

What's a designer to do when challenged with a switching application that requires handling up to 70 kV? These applications are not as rare as one may think. In fact, a broad range of applications in ...

Circuits as WAN connections battled successfully against packets for years because they guaranteed bandwidth, no matter what. If you bought a T-1 circuit, the service provider nailed up 1.5Mbps from ...

If you are an RC modeller, then this circuit is for you! The compact RC Switch let you turn something on and off from a regular R/C channel. The device is powered entirely by the receiver, drawing ...
