Engineers are often faced with applications that would work best with a dc sensor but have only ac power available. To help in those situations, designers at Hyde Park Electronics, Dayton, Ohio ...

When first starting an electronics project, it’s not uncommon to dive right in to getting the core parts of the project working. Breadboarding the project usually involves working with a benchtop ...

This AC to DC converter circuit is capable of converting an alternative voltage within 70V – 260V range into a DC voltage within 180V to 350V DC range, so it can be used for 110V and 220V too. To ...

Xis has expanded its AC portfolio with the launch of the high-powered IC383 AC/DC converter for rail applications.

A dc-to-dc buck converter, the FX5545G108, delivers power density of more than 570 W/cu in. in a 20-port, surface-mount BGA package. It measures 0.58 X 0.48 in. (4.7 X 12.2 mm) with a maximum height ...

A new printed-circuit-mount transformer has been developed for ac-to-dc converter applications. The SPP-3003 is designed to be used in conjunction with the TNY254 Tiny Switch integrated off-line ...

The demand for smaller, lighter, and more efficient AC/DC USB power delivery (PD) chargers is always a challenge for power-supply design engineers. Below 100 W, the quasi-resonant flyback is still the ...

Regeneration offers a way to provide excess power to the grid. In dc regeneration, the final dc-to-ac power stage is removed and instead placed on a custom-built dc distribution network, thus making ...

The battery as we know it today was an invention of Italian chemist and physicist Alessandro Volta. He witnessed electricity splitting water into its constituent elements of oxygen and hydrogen and ...
