Abstract: In this letter, a modified low-voltage triggered silicon-controlled rectifier (LVTSCR) is proposed and fabricated for electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection in a 0.18-$\mu \text{m}$ 1.8-V ...

A major cause of losses in a conventional power supply using a 50/60-Hz transformer is the bridge rectifier. This article shows how to build a “greener” rectifier, substantially reducing losses by ...

When taking measurements in ionization chambers and other radiation sensors, it's often essential to handle small currents in the picoamp to microamp range. Check out this picoammeter design from a ...

Abstract: The announcement of the silicon controlled rectifier1,2 in December 1957 instituted a new era in the field of electric power conversion. Almost immediately, attention was focused on the ...

This document details the course project on a Full-wave Rectifier - Step Down Circuit for the course "Introduction to Electronics - CIE212". The project is authored by Omar Elsayed. The circuit design ...

This project involves the simulation of a single-phase controlled rectifier with an inductive load using MATLAB Simulink. The purpose of this simulation is to understand and analyze the behavior of ...

Infineon has put a 650V silicon IGBT alongside a silicon carbide diode in the same TO-247 packages. “Due to a freewheeling SiC Schottky barrier diode, the CoolSiC Hybrid IGBTs perform with ...

Diode makes software to design printed circuit boards, which are used in most electronics. The startup raised $11.4 million in Series A funding led by A16z. Diode aims to work with robotics, medical ...
