Growing data center power demands are driving server equipment manufacturers to reach higher power-conversion efficiencies in order to reduce the thermal footprint of their systems. The transition ...

We needed to detect motion in a commercial, stepper motor driven system and subsequently initiate motion in a servomotor based system we developed. Because both systems simulate human respiratory ...

Current transformer (CT) saturation presents a critical challenge in the realm of power system protection and automation. Under fault conditions, the magnetic core of a CT may become saturated, ...

The primary function of a current transformer (CT) is to provide accurate current information to protective relays. But when a CT saturates and can no longer perform this function, the lack of ...

For the PDF version of this article, click here. When designing converters, it is often desirable to measure the dc current coming into the converter. This is particularly true when batteries are ...

For serious high-voltage plasma, you need a serious transformer. [Jay Bowles] from Plasma Channel is taking his projects to the next level, so he built a beefy 6000:1 flyback transformer. [Jay] first ...
