The global market for high-brightness and high-power LEDs is forecast to reach $27.5 billion by 2024, with much of the growth coming from the automotive sector, where demand is growing at more than 10 ...

Rectifiers and ac-dc power supplies employ large bulk capacitors. During power-up, these capacitors require a large amount of current to charge up, resulting in a large inrush current. This inrush ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. Power systems employ diodes to perform a variety of functions. For example, diodes can protect against damage due to power-source reverse-polarity ...

Inrush current effect is common in electric motors. Sometimes, in case of ill-designed electrical wiring systems, switching on the motor may activate the fuse. It is caused by the inrush current – ...

This video shows the Yokogawa CW10 Clamp-on Power Meter. The unit can measure up to 1000 V AC/DC and can determine up to 600 A. Additional diagnostic capabilities include continuity check, phase ...

However much care is taken, it is very difficult to keep all traces of transformer-induced hum out of the signal circuitry. It is highly irritating to find that despite the cunning use of low-noise ...
