What is a desaturation detection circuit? A desaturation fault detection circuit provides protection for power semiconductor switches (IGBT or MOSFETs) against short-circuit current events which may ...

Electrical engineers have manually identified circuit faults using multimeter testing and visual inspections, spending countless hours measuring currents and inspecting for soldering defects.

The National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements for arc fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs) have become more stringent with each passing Code cycle, stirring up much discussion and debate among ...

In order to continuously improve the transparency of power distribution grids, it is important to have precise knowledge about the relevant conditions in the local grid. This is achieved by utilizing ...

Lighting a string of LEDs at a constant brightness requires driving it with a regulated current. A boost converter is commonly used to step up the voltage to a level high enough to bias the LEDs on ...

Denso’s fault detection device for antennas adjusts carrier wave frequency, modulates the signal, and measures antenna current to detect faults. By analyzing current values, the device identifies ...
