The circuit in Figure 1 is a high-power analog of the popular TL431 programmable shunt regulator. This two-terminal circuit is convenient when the drain of the P-channel FET is grounded, since it ...

The market for shunt reactor circuits is projected to grow, according to the latest research study by Polaris Market Research. The shunt reactor circuit market size was valued at USD 2,673.79 million ...

The world has turned to renewable energy in an attempt to wean itself from depleting carbon-based sources. The increase in the number of solar, wind, wave, and tidal power sources has pushed the need ...

Here's how to reduce the effect of capacitor switching on your power system Last month's article discussed exactly what happens when electric utilities switch shunt capacitors: power system components ...

When tasked with a current sensing requirement, designers typically look first to using dedicated resistors designed for this task. Occasionally though there is the temptation to consider sensing ...

To control system operation, motors require a current measurement, which can be achieved using shunt resistors that provide a simple and cost-effective solution. Motors are used in countless consumer ...

Piezoelectric shunt damping is an innovative method for mitigating unwanted vibrations in structures by exploiting the electromechanical properties of piezoelectric transducers. When bonded to a ...
