Editor's Note: Here's another take on the transformerless AC line power supply, which finds use in some well-insulated, low-power devices. Our technical reviewer pointed out that C ac should be an ...

Here is a simple 12 volts DC to AC inverter circuit. This 120V AC power source is built with a simple 120V:24V or 110V:24V center-tapped control transformer and four additional component. This circuit ...

H-bridge buck-boost ICs are widely used in applications requiring a constant voltage or current source even when the system ...

Power-control modules are circuits comprising devices such as silicon-controlled rectifiers, triacs, power transistors, and power rectifier diodes. Power-control modules are circuits comprising ...

Fig. 1: The silicon-controlled rectifier One major aspect of development in broadcast transmitter technology and power electronics is in the area of power control. On the traditional transformer, we ...
