Switching has almost always meant “hard" switching, which is simple but comes with all kinds of electrical and thermal ...

As power demands climb in everything from renewable-heavy electric grids to AI data centers, the pressure on power electronics to deliver more performance in smaller spaces is mounting. Electricity ...

Maintaining control of a power converter is paramount to maximizing its efficiency, reducing energy losses and improving the life of the component. Proper control optimizes the overall performance of ...

In power converters, the input capacitors are fed through inductive cabling to the power source. Parasitic inductance will cause ringing of the input voltage to almost twice its DC value when first ...

The consequences can be costly, ranging from production downtime to compromised equipment and even safety hazards. Certainly, capacitors are indeed responsible for 30% of power electronics failures, ...
