All electrical systems are susceptible to short circuits and the abnormal current levels they create. These currents can produce considerable thermal and mechanical stresses in electrical distribution ...

The restart of the newly upgraded Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has been delayed after a short circuit was found in one of the machine’s magnets. CERN said today that seven of the machine’s eight ...

I see techs in the field get the most frustrated when they have a low-voltage short they can’t seem to locate. The challenge techs face with low voltage diagnosis is a combination of poor process and ...

High-voltage batteries can fail if a short circuit happens. A MOSFET makes them safer, lasts longer & works better in e-bikes ...

This circuit is suitable in every situation where over-current protection is required. Here we give an example from the model train world. Every seasoned model train enthusiast knows that there is ...

A power system functions normally until after the occurrence of a fault in the system. The good news is fault events can be minimized or avoided through diligent electrical design, accurate record ...

Trench-based silicon carbide power MOSFETs (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors) represent a dramatic improvement in the Figure of Merit (FOM) values of power conversion switching ...
