Silicon carbide (SiC) power devices have been commercially available for ten years. During that time, there has been a steady increase in voltage ratings to 1,200 V and 1,700 V for SiC-Schottky diodes ...

Who would have thought that the small pump, fan, and blower motors would be a liability in achieving higher efficiencies in our white goods and HVAC equipment? Designs have evolved to the point of ...

Researchers from the University of Science and Technology of China have designed a novel topology for a bidirectional inverter for uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The proposed inverter design, ...

A large portion of design for recycling concerns product assembly. Gluing parts together can mean that they cannot be separated cost efficiently, or ever again at all. Push-fit connections are the ...

Recent developments in IGBT and FWD (free wheeling diode) devices are enabling designers to achieve higher switching performance, lower electrical losses, and higher temperature operation in high ...

Eaton’s inverters offer stable AC power for modern fleet electronics, enhancing uptime and device protection in commercial ...

It’s interesting, useful, and fun that basic electronic topologies often turn out to have utility in multiple and surprisingly different applications. Figure 1 shows an example of such a circuit. It’s ...

Lenze's i500 series of frequency inverters. For the past four years we've been seeing a number of business partnerships develop to help companies deliver on a broad swath of Industrial Internet of ...

The potentiometer option for SMVector NEMA-4X inverters is built into the terminal cover, providing direct front-panel access. The potentiometer knob takes the place of up/down buttons on the drive ...

A wide range of materials with expanded electrical insulation, heat dissipation, and EMC/EMI materials are well suited for solar inverters A wide range of materials with expanded electrical insulation ...
