This lab seeks to illustrate the fundamental operation of uncontrolled rectifier circuits. The waveforms associated with these circuits are visualized using simulation and experimentation. The circuit ...

This Design Idea illustrates a way to make use of MOSFETs’ parasitic body diodes in a power circuit that can be used in UPS and energy-recovery (e.g., regenerative braking) designs. The circuit can ...

Bourns, Inc. announced the introduction of new high Power TVS diode models in SMD packaging for use in AC and DC power line applications. The new models feature high current bidirectional port ...

A glass substrate was first cleaned with acetone, methanol and deionized water for 5 min each. A transparent ITO electrode was deposited onto the cleaned substrate using a DC sputtering system.

[Hales] has been on a mission for a while to make his own diodes and put them to use and now he’s succeeded with diodes made of sodium bicarbonate and water, aluminum tape and soldered copper. By ...

Two high Power TVS diodes from Bourns, Inc., offer enhanced protection in surface mount SMD packaging. The diodes are designed for DC clamping in exposed AC/DC power supply applications such as ...
