Stellantis has developed a new EV battery pack configuration that eliminates the separate power electronics module and ...

Electricity comes in two basic forms: Alternating Current (AC) and Direct Current (DC). DC is handy to use and is easy to analyze. However, AC has some useful properties too. In particular, AC current ...

Mechanical relays, contactors, and switches control the flow of electricity by the mechanical action of two conducting elements. The physical contact of two conducting elements creates a path for ...

An electric current can be induced in in a coil of wire by moving a magnet in and out of the coil. AC generators are used in the generation of electricity and in their simplest form consist of a coil ...

Board-level designers often have concerns about the proper way to handle grounding for integrated circuits (ICs) which have separate analog and digital grounds. Should the two be completely separate ...

In 1903, as a last-ditch effort to maintain direct current as the standard for distributing electricity around the United States, Thomas Edison presided over a notorious event meant in part to ...

As the primary switching device used in a broad range of power conversion applications, MOSFETs play a central role in power supply design. Defining their performance characteristics is crucial to ...

We're all conscious of the dangers of electricity. We know that 3-volt batteries are safe, but outlets are dangerous enough that they should be covered in order to protect toddlers. We also know not ...
