Supercapacitors used in a series are gaining prominence as energy storage devices for a number of applications because of their versatility, utility, and durability. This technology is a relative new ...

Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFETs exhibit higher blocking voltage, lower on state resistance and higher thermal conductivity than their silicon counterparts. SiC MOSFETs are designed and essentially ...

Crowbar circuits have long been the go-to safeguard against overvoltage conditions, prized for their simplicity and ...

After discussing the three transistor high-side buck p-mosfet driver (a recognised circuit and not mine) with some of EW’s sage commenters, I wondered once again if I could design something similar ...
