While wiring may have some similarities with access control technology, fire code compliance demands a different approach ...

There are many cases where a power supply needs an internal current-limiter function, usually built using a current sensor, a control circuit, and a pass transistor. The current sensor itself can be a ...

Frederik Dostal explains the rise of the ideal diode and how it can be used to develop more robust power systems.

This circuit is a Mosfet-based linear voltage regulator with a voltage drop of as low as 60mV at 1A. The circuit uses a 15V-0-15V transformer and employs an IRF540 N-channel Mosfet (Q1) to deliver the ...
