Benning Power Electronics announced the release of three new power conversion products that will allow power utilities to upgrade their networks in line with the U.S Government's new smart grid ...

The consequences can be costly, ranging from production downtime to compromised equipment and even safety hazards. Certainly, capacitors are indeed responsible for 30% of power electronics failures, ...

What is a dc microgrid? Different power electronic converter architectures used for microgrids. Microgrids are essentially a network of loads and local power generations (distributed generations), ...

Diodes is aiming at non-isolated mains-powered IoT nodes with an ac-dc power chip that can deliver 60mA at 3.3V. AL17050 is a universal (85-265Vac) universal off-line buck converter with an integrated ...

Compact, DIN rail mounting ac/dc converters from Mornsun are energy efficient and offer superior EMC performance, says Relec Electronics, which has added the LIF Series to its line card. The LIF120 R2 ...

This course introduces more advanced concepts of switched-mode converter circuits. Realization of the power semiconductors in inverters or in converters having bidirectional power flow is explained.

When first starting an electronics project, it’s not uncommon to dive right in to getting the core parts of the project working. Breadboarding the project usually involves working with a benchtop ...

Editor’s note: I had previously reviewed this book by Efficient Power Conversion's talented power experts and found it to be very instructive for power designers, students, and anyone interested in ...
