Hybrid relays combine a mechanical switch with a solid-state switch, and they are set up in parallel to control a single load.

Two DC stages DC-to-DC conversion typically starts with 48 V (or sometimes 54 V), and first drops it to 12 or 6 V. Then it is further dropped to the specific DC voltage that a chip requires. These two ...

Logan Bardole got his start in electronics by repairing video game circuit boards as a hobby. Electronics permeate the world. They are in nearly everything we use. In Part 3 of WGLT's weeklong series ...

If you're planning to increase your electrical load by adding a new major appliance, make sure your panel can handle it. Here's how.

The MAX74810, which is fully specified over the extended industrial temperature range of −40 to +125°C, is housed in an 8-lead MSOP package. The 23-page datasheet includes the many graphs and tables ...

The last time I spoke with him on the record, the Big Eagle said it best. “Take the wings off, and give them an engine that sings.” ...

In many systems, transmission lines drive reactive (mostly capacitive) loads. To preserve signal integrity, you should properly terminate the lines. However, the input impedance of CMOS logic ICs, for ...

This dual-fuel model is quiet and built to power sensitive devices and smart appliances. It’s also $1000, which makes it a great value.

The DC series motor has some desirable properties, but it can become quite dangerous to use if proper safety precautions are overlooked.
