Over 30 years ago, AC drives were considered "new technology." If a company wanted to have reliable production, it should stick with known, proven technology - that of DC drives and motors. In many ...

AC and DC current are to EVs what petrol and diesel are to traditional combustion cars. You can think of them as ‘fuels’ that will keep your electric car battery topped up. However ...

An accessible, intuitive introduction for the power supply novice, this guide discusses the key issues and offers personal guidance, industry tips and readable war stories, ranging from power supplies ...

GMC-I PROSyS has extended its CP3 range of AC/DC, non-invasive, current measurement probes to provide measurement sensitivity into the milliamp range, and with resolution of 1 mA. The CP3 range probes ...

By using AC the voltage can be stepped up, reducing energy loss. Discuss the difference between alternating current and direct current . Students could investigate differences between the two ...

Several series of AC/DC controllers from Nexperia provide lower standby current and higher conversion efficiency for flyback ...

There’s many different ways of measuring current. If it’s DC, the easiest way is to use a shunt resistor and measure the voltage across it, and for AC you could use a current transformer.

Littelfuse’s RCMP20 residual current monitors support compact, high-current Mode 2 and Mode 3 EV charging stations.

Researchers at Purdue University Indianapolis have developed a groundbreaking capacitorless solid-state power filter (SSPF) for DC-AC converters, addressing the limitations of traditional passive ...
