Many loads are mainly resistive; thus, they’re rated in watts (i.e., true power). Simply stated, these loads have a very small reactive component, which means an apparent power rating (VA) would not ...

TE Connectivity’s latest relay product is designed to manage harsh inductive, motor and lamp loads. Intended for the requirements of rugged power switching in aerospace, defence and marine ...

Increased electrification in vehicles is changing the way driver assistance systems are designed, says Yang Wang, with high-side switches increasingly used for resistive, capacitive and inductive ...

The power transistor must be chosen to provide fast response while also withstanding high power dissipation. Several electrical and thermal characteristics must be considered: 1. An array of N current ...
