Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today introduced a new surface-mount Power Metal Strip ® current sense resistor that combines a high power rating up to 5 W, TCR down to ± 75 ppm/°C, and ...

While passive precharge employs a power resistor to create an RC circuit that charges the capacitor asymptotically, active precharge can employ a switching converter with a buck topology that uses ...

The familiar five volts standard from back in the TTL days always struck me as odd. Back when I was just a poor kid trying to ...

In power converters, the input capacitors are fed through inductive cabling to the power source. Parasitic inductance will cause ringing of the input voltage to almost twice its DC value when first ...

I will be talking about single-series (1sXp) cell configurations, for a simple reason – multiple-series configurations are not something I consider myself as having worked extensively with. The single ...
