Power-supply failure takes on significant importance in high-end computer, telecom, medical, and industrial applications, in which uninterruptible power is paramount. In these systems, diode-OR-ed ...

This overvoltage protection or crowbar protection circuit is used where we need protection against high voltage surge. The circuit has a few components, it is very easy to build and will protect your ...

Rather than use linear surge stoppers for overvoltage protection, opt for switching surge varieties, as the load will continue running even when surges last for a long time. Linear vs. switching surge ...

In this Idea for Design: the Soft-start capacitor's discharge can be used as a trigger for a latch circuit in order to provide latch-off fault response in switching supplies Most switching ...
