hyperfast rectifiers get QPL certification for aero/defense apps
DLA Land and Maritime approved SSDI’s JANS1N8257US hyperfast rectifiers for QPL certification per MIL-PRF-19500/477. SSDI developed these 6 amp, 200 volts, 30 ns devices to provide higher performance than the 1N5811 within the smaller 1N5806 footprint. The JANS1N8257US provides significant improvements in output current, reverse voltage, peak surge current (125 A), thermal resistance (8.5°C/W), high-temperature […]
Fuses, eFuses, thermistors, and fusible resistors – which and when?
Fuses, eFuses, various types of thermistors, and fusible resistors can provide varying levels of circuit protection. Fuses offer only the most basic level of overcurrent and short-circuit protection. Thermistors can be added to provide inrush current control, and a fusible resistor can provide both inrush current control and overcurrent/short-circuit protection. The most comprehensive protection is […]
Rack-mounted, standalone, stepper motor controllers drive single and multi-axis stages
