How ac/dc power supplies save you money
Choosing a high-quality, high-efficiency power supply that costs $50-$100, will probably pay for itself in the course of a year. Today’s trend is for power supplies to do more, have more, but cost less. Engineers that use power supplies are seeking less expensive supplies with additional features, while maintaining the same amount of energy needed […]
Power MOSFETs basics for the learning engineer
This powerpoint presentation discusses the fundamentals of power MOSFETS. Used mostly in integrated circuits, power MOSFETS is widely popular for its ability to handle high power levels. From diodes (the simplest form of a semiconductor), to parasitic capacitance, these illustrations and schematics are created to assist in clarifying the basics in power MOSFETS.
