12-V dc Systems Power that feeds video monitors on the backs of seats, powered antennas, and other accessories needs short-circuit protection.

Electric drives require effective protection against overloads and short circuits. Both phenomena cause motor disruption and create a risk of damage to the motor. This could lead to a potentially ...

POWER INTEGRATIONS SCALE-2 2SP0230T2x0 dual-channel, plug-and-play gate drivers, for 62mm silicon-carbide (SiC) MOSFET and silicon IGBT modules, are rated up to 1700V, with enhanced protection ...

The simple circuit in the figure adds a few low-cost components to a “dumb driver” to make it a smart one, with added short-circuit protection and built-in diagnostics. Transistor Q1 is an ...

This strategic approach prevents unnecessary interruptions while still offering robust overcurrent protection. Modern protective relays use advanced technologies to monitor fault conditions and ...

6,499 examples of the 2022 to 2024 Audi e-tron GT and RS e-tron GT have been hit with another battery-related safety recall in the US market ...

Industrial facilities commonly use variable-frequency drives (VFDs) to control the speed at which alternating current motors operate. Let’s examine a couple of typical scenarios commonly encountered ...

The NEC states in Table 430.52 that short-circuit protection for MCPs shall be no more than eight times the FLA. There is an exception that allows protection to be set to 13 times the FLA for standard ...
