I provided some engineering assistance a couple years ago for a company designing photo-voltaic array (PVA) based power inverters. These are sometimes referred to as micro-inverters since they are ...

Most modern electronic devices consist of several key components: transistors, capacitors, resistors, inductors and diodes. Often, they are supplemented by additional components like crystals and ...

Alpha and Omega Semiconductor has announced a family of active diodes which can reduce the 1.2V forward drop of 600V bridge rectifiers. “Both products are self-powered from the AC line and do not ...

Among passive electronic components, the fuse and diode are well known, well understood, widely used, and essential to many circuits and systems. Still, each has inherent shortcomings that make them ...

Technological advances in the electronics industry have resulted in our digital cameras, computers, and cell phones drastically reducing in size. In order to maintain this momentum, there is a strong ...
