The winter holidays have become a moving stage set for the ultra rich, and this season the spotlight followed Jeff Bezos and ...

This resource provides clear explanations of how switching regulators work and how voltage boosting is achieved efficiently ...

The transformation of the power landscape involves more than just generation. The distribution of electricity is being changed as well, with technology designed to make electrical systems safer, more ...

Racking in or out a power circuit breaker is simple, right? Although this task sounds pretty straightforward in theory, that’s not always the case. In fact, during years of field work related to ...

Atom Power, inventor of a digital circuit breaker, introduced the second generation of its technology. The Generation 2 Atom Switch is now UL Listed to UL 489I — the standard listing for solid-state ...

One of the biggest challenges for wireless sensor networks is that of power. Solar panels usually produce less power than you hoped, especially small ones, and designing super low power circuits is ...

Power factor correction uses parallel connected capacitors to oppose the effects of inductive elements and reduce the phase shift between the voltage and current. Power factor correction is a ...

Silicon MOSFET power transistors have been a mainstay of power-supply design for years. And while they’re still widely used, gallium-nitride (GaN) transistors are gradually replacing MOSFETs in some ...

If you’ve ever tried to make a really low-power circuit — especially one that runs on harvested power — you have probably fallen into at least a few of the many traps that await the unwary in this ...

Accidentally spilling a cup of coffee over a power strip will, at best, probably cause the connected equipment to stop working. On the other hand, such water-related electrical mishaps could lead to ...

This week the world’s first and only digital circuit breaker was certified for commercial use. The technology, invented by Atom Power, has been listed by Underwriters Laboratories (UL), the global ...
