Solid-state relays are much smaller than corresponding single-pole relays. They are also faster, dissipate less power, and withstand a larger number of operations. And unlike electromechanical relays, ...

When to use mechanical vs. solid-state devices. The parameters that should be considered when selecting a device. Optimize your selection for lowest cost/maximum ...

Until very recently, few alternatives to electromechanical and magnetic circuit breakers existed. Designers were forced to live with such undesirable characteristics as arcing and switch bounce (with ...

Modern power electronics are growing in both power capacity and density, making circuit protection more important than ever. There's increasing interest in solid−state circuit breakers and power ...
