Real-time power supply and demand balances are critical to ensure stable power frequency and quality power services. However, the growing integration of renewable energy increasingly challenges the ...

In vehicle electrical systems, a high- to low-voltage DC/DC converter is a reversible electronic device that changes the DC from the vehicle’s high-voltage (400 V or 800 V) battery to a lower DC ...

AC induction motors are widely used in industrial applications due to their reliability and low maintenance needs. Comprised of a stator and rotor, these motors convert electrical energy into ...

Load Frequency Control (LFC) is a critical component in modern power systems, responsible for maintaining the frequency of the electrical grid within tight bounds despite fluctuations in demand and ...

No two technologies have generated more buzz in power semiconductors in recent years than GaN (Gallium Nitride) and SiC (Silicon Carbide). Both these wide band-gap (WBG) semiconductors offer several ...

As chip designs push the limits of speed, size and complexity, the semiconductor industry has set its sights on angstrom-scale device features. High-speed, precise and repeatable plasma power delivery ...

Power management is one of the keys for developing successful semiconductors products. There are virtually no applications ...

A new analysis shows increasing frequency and intensity of hurricanes could cause more devastating interruptions to the power grid. By Austyn Gaffney The risk of hurricane-induced power outages could ...
