Most objects in contact with water or an aqueous solution acquire some electronic charges on their surfaces. These charges on the surface attract counter ions from the liquid, which electrically ...

EPCOS has optimized its discharge resistor modules based on hybrid ceramics to simplify mounting of discharge resistors on PFC capacitors and enhance reliability. The new module is no longer supplied ...

The capacitor auto-discharge module presented in this article is simply a failsafe module that automatically discharges the buffer/filter capacitor in a power supply circuit when its input supply is ...

UK based ARCOL Resistors has introduced its RW Discharge Resistor. This wire-wound resistor is designed for quick and easy mounting on to capacitors and is typically used as a discharge or balancing ...

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 ...

Electronic enthusiasts may be interested in a new versatile RLC-Box created by electronics hobbyist Roger Leifert based in Aachen, Germany. With 3 rotary-switches you can select from 8 decades of ...

Cressall Resistors supplies lightweight, compact and easy-to-maintain resistors for railway traction systems. The company’s solutions have been used in transportation applications for more than sixty ...

You should limit thermal dissipation to a maximum of 15°C above ambient, and at no time should it exceed the maximum temperature rating of the capacitor. Film capacitors have been rapidly evolving to ...
