Abstract: Fault diagnosis is essential for enhancing the reliability of voltage source inverter (VSI) systems. This article proposes a rapid, noncontact method for detecting open-circuit faults (OCFs) ...

Here we describe an electronic system that uses a dedicated water-level sensor to switch off the pump motor as soon as the ...

This resource provides clear explanations of how switching regulators work and how voltage boosting is achieved efficiently ...

Crowbar circuits have long been the go-to safeguard against overvoltage conditions, prized for their simplicity and ...

Abstract: Reversely switched dynistor (RSD) is a solid-state semiconductor switch with very high critical switched current rising rate and peak forward current. As a two-terminal switch, the RSD is ...

While standard receptacles typically use three wires -- hot, neutral and ground -- you'll occasionally find 2-prong outlets in older homes. Since this type of outlet lacks a ground connection, the ...
