Single-phase power factor correction (PFC) circuits--a kind of front-end AC/DC converters--are ubiquitous in a variety of consumer electronic devices, including laptop adapters, LED driver power ...

Power factor correction uses parallel connected capacitors to oppose the effects of inductive elements and reduce the phase shift between the voltage and current. Power factor correction is a ...

When it comes to the most typical cause of poor power factor in a facility, motor inductance is a likely culprit. The problem worsens when motors are not loaded to their full capacity. Harmonic ...

Supplying power to a device, board or system is, by definition, an analog function that is characterized with parameters such as voltage, current and efficiency. However, the increased performance of ...

The power factor measurement has long been accepted as an invaluable tool for identifying insulation defects, such as ageing, deterioration, moisture ingress and localized failures, involving the ...

How the new MCUs save costs. Implementation of TI's InstaSPIN FOC software and advanced algorithms. Range of applications for these MCUs. By integrating TI’s C28x digital-signal-processor core, a high ...
