Typically, a power supply is comprised of a power transformer, which is then followed by a conventional bridge rectifier. The bridge rectifier is constructed using four diodes that are interconnected ...

Everyone loves a full-wave bridge rectifier, but there’s no denying that they aren’t 100% efficient due to the diode voltage drop. Which isn’t to say that with some effort we cannot create an ideal ...

THIS is a useful little book and will be helpful to electrical engineers, physicists, and radio amateurs. The electrical engineer will appreciate the theory and the method described of using a ...

Beware! The behavior of a part outside its operating specifications is not always predictable. Beware! The behavior of a part outside its operating specifications is not always predictable. In my ...
