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 ...

DC electronic loads have been available for electronic testing applications for several decades. Today’s products include switched resistors, high-speed active loads utilizing power semiconductors, ...

Although we do our best to shield our portable devices from physical harm by using protective cases, or employing rugged design techniques, there is another layer of protection that can be applied.

Problem: your electronic load works fine, except for the occasional MOSFET bursting into flames. Solution: do what [tbladykas] did, and build a water-cooled electronic load. One can quibble that ...

Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has launched “TPH3R10AQM,” a 100V N-channel power MOSFET fabricated with Toshiba’s latest-generation process, U-MOS X-H. The product ...

Mission critical servers and communications equipment must continue to operate, even as circuit boards and cards are plugged-in or pulled-out for maintenance and capacity adjustment. Hot swap ...
