Short-circuit currents represent a tremendous amount of destructive energy, which can be released through electrical systems under fault conditions. Baseline short-circuit studies should be performed ...

A transformer transfers electrical energy from one system to another by induction. Except for grounding and bonding connections, there’s no physical connection between the two systems. For this reason ...

Download this article in PDF format. If you search the internet for “transformer equivalent circuits,” you’ll get five pages of over 100 small circuit diagrams. Figures 1 and 2 show two typical ...

Unlike the voltage transformer, a current transformer measures current from one circuit to another, which requires different calculations to create the optimal design. Current transformers measure ...

Average current-mode control (CMC) requires that the total waveform of the current be reconstructed for the control loop. This article presents the steps required to select the transformer and how to ...

Using circuit simulating software like SPICE can be a powerful tool for modeling the behavior of a circuit in the real world. On the other hand, it’s not always necessary to have all of the features ...

A new technical paper titled “Accelerating OTA Circuit Design: Transistor Sizing Based on a Transformer Model and Precomputed Lookup Tables” was published by University Minnesota and Cadence. “Device ...

A vandalized transformer short-circuited during Tuesday’s heavy rains, knocking out electrical power to more than 3,000 customers in the Thompsonville area, including three schools, officials said.

To investigate the electrical realm of high-frequency and high-voltage, Tesla invented an apparatus that pushed the limits of electrical understanding. None of the circuit's typical components were ...
