Switches controlled by the input signal amplitude are used as input signal level indicators, input signal level analyzers, power supply voltage indicators, and so on. Such switches are usually made as ...

Using voltage data down to the consumer level is essential for grid optimisation and operational flexibility in the new era of intermittent generation and fast-changing user demand. Power grids were ...

What are HVICs? High-voltage integrated circuits (HVICs) translate low-voltage control signals to levels that are suitable for driving power switches in high-voltage applications. HVICs also can ...

A gate turn-off switch, also known as a gate-controlled switch (GCS) or gate turn-off thyristor (GTO), is similar to an SCR but can be turned off by a negative signal on the gate terminal. GTOs ...

The influences and tolerance that impact SMPS voltage accuracy. Tools that can be used to optimize a power-converter circuit loop and measure load transients. Switch-mode power supplies (SMPS) have a ...

Electrically tunable ionic hydrogels use small voltages to switch friction at metal contacts between high-friction and ultra-low-friction states, enabling voltage-programmed grip, release and motion ...
