Everyone loves a full-wave bridge rectifier, but there’s no denying that they aren’t 100% efficient due to the diode voltage drop. Which isn’t to say that with some effort we cannot create an ideal ...
The regulator-rectifier plays a huge role in keeping a motorcycle’s electrical system running. By converting the engine’s alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC), it powers the onboard ...
Diamondoids, the square cages at left, were jointed to buckyballs, the soccer-ball shapes at right, to create buckydiamondoids (center). These hybrid carbon-hydrogen molecules act as rectifiers or ...
Welcome back to this week’s installment of Scope Noob where I’m sharing my experiences learning to use my first oscilloscope. Last week I started out measuring mains frequency using an AC-AC wall wart ...
A rectifier input capacitor's size is often considered nebulous. Therefore, common practice is to pick a large size, and if the ripple voltage is low enough, all is okay (see the figure, a). If not, ...
EL SEGUNDO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 14, 2004--International Rectifier Corporation (NYSE:IRF), a world leader in power management technology, today announced that CEO Alex Lidow and Director of ...
