Now that autos are moving toward high-powered battery voltage, the industry is turning new attention toward making sure the flow can stop on a dime when needed. Power management company Eaton Corp.

There are many circuits for low voltage regulators. For higher voltages, such as supplies for valve circuits, the situation is different. That’s why we decided to design this simple regulator that can ...

If a motor isn't adequately protected, a short circuit will likely result in premature replacement. Then there's the problem of nuisance tripping upon initial start-up because the magnetic setting of ...

This article is part of the Ideas for Design Series: Vol. 3, No. 8. This circuit builds on a previous idea in which the addition of an optocoupler to a microcontroller output converted a “dumb” ...

Circuit protection has proven useful, but meeting the increasingly sophisticated industrial and commercial requirements can be a challenge. An overload or short circuit in a fuse or mini circuit ...

TO BE READ BY ALL ELECTROSCHEMATICS ENTHUSIASTS! Much needs to be said about this oft neglected subject. We would never even think of connecting the utility mains to our house without proper circuit ...

The rapid expansion of artificial intelligence and machine learning applications is fundamentally transforming data center ...

Circuit breakers now sport advanced features that include remote control and operational status reporting. Engineers have long considered circuit protection a stable if somewhat unglamorous area.

Article 240 provides the requirements for selecting and installing overcurrent protection devices (OCPDs). Depending on your application, other Articles may apply ...
