Capacitors are classified according to their dielectric’s type. Electrolytic capacitors are popular in power electronic circuits, due to their high volumetric efficiency and excellent price ...
Capacitive sensors are found in a wide range of equipment, from consumer electronics to industrial/process control. Touch buttons are increasingly found in lamps and dimmers. Motion detectors can ...
This video explains what capacitors are and how they store and release electrical energy in electronic circuits. Capacitors ...
A recently filed patent (Publication Number: US20230314495A1) describes a capacitance measurement circuit that includes an analog front-end circuit, a parasitic capacitor, an analog to digital ...
Capacitor Voltage Transformers (CVTs) are central to modern power systems, where they not only scale high transmission voltages into measurable signals but also ensure the precision needed for ...
Using a PN-junction diode for temperature measurement usually depends on its 2‑mV/K temperature coefficient. Conventionally, you must amplify and digitize this voltage with an ADC before you can use ...
Every now and then you need to make your own capacitor. That includes choosing a dielectric for it, the insulating material that goes between the plates. One dielectric material that I use a lot is ...
Northeast Power Systems, Inc. metal-enclosed capacitor banks are designed for industrial, commercial, and utility power systems requiring medium-voltage automatic power factor correction. Oct. 16, ...
