Silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs are increasingly used in high-power applications owing to their superior switching speeds, low on‐resistance and enhanced thermal performance. In order to achieve higher ...

A parallel circuit is way of connecting components on separate branches, so the current can take different routes around the circuit. The current is different in different parts of a parallel circuit.

Series and Parallel Circuit Series and parallel circuits are two fundamental configurations in electrical circuits, each with distinct characteristics that affect how electricity flows through them.

Among the abundance of components making up electronic circuits, very few are as important as capacitors. These components, taking the form of conductive plates separated by an insulating material ...

Advanced Linear Devices (ALD) has developed Supercapacitor Auto Balancing (SAB) MOSFETs that by themselves address regulation and leakage current balancing of series-connected supercaps. Without the ...

Given the maturity of MOSFETs, selecting one for your next design may seem deceptively simple. Engineers are familiar with the figures of merit on a MOSFET data sheet. Selecting a MOSFET requires the ...

A variety of applications use hot-swap controllers, often to increase the reliability of a system. However, a failure in the hot-swap circuit would defeat that purpose. When you use MOSFETs in their ...
