Square-root-calculating circuits find wide use in instrumentation and measurement systems for such tasks as calculating the rms (root-mean-square) value of an arbitrary waveform, for example. Hence, ...

Trench-based silicon carbide power MOSFETs (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors) represent a dramatic improvement in the Figure of Merit (FOM) values of power conversion switching ...

(Nanowerk News) As our electronics continue to proliferate and become more sophisticated, the race continues for more power efficient and scaleable semiconductor devices — components that use minimal ...

The power transistor must be chosen to provide fast response while also withstanding high power dissipation. Several electrical and thermal characteristics must be considered: 1. An array of N current ...

Magnachip Semiconductor Corporation (NYSE: MX, "Magnachip") today announced the launch of two new 8th-generation Ultra Low-Ron 12V low-voltage (LV) MOSFETs designed for high-performance smartphone ...

Transistors are three-terminal semiconductor devices. One terminal controls electrical resistance or current flow between the other two terminals, giving transistors a valvelike operation. Transistors ...

Toshiba is launching the TLX9920, a photovoltaic-output photocoupler to provide an isolated gate drive voltage for power ...
