Accurate modeling of power electronic converters, i.e., obtaining control to output transfer function, must include series resistance of capacitors and inductors. A simple method allows measurement of ...

Capacitor discharge circuits are used extensively in fast pulse generation. In such applications, the capacitor's stray inductance (or equivalent series inductance ...

Guest columnist Dale Cigoy, lead applications engineer at Keithley Instruments, outlines how an understanding of the challenges for testing capacitors can be invaluable to engineers. Capacitors are ...

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 ...

Thoughtful reader Raymond Laagel of Mulhouse, France sent a note with a proof of a Design Idea we published back in 2010. The DI was called Circuit measures capacitance or inductance, and it was by ...

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 ...

Occasionally a design requires capacitors that are much closer to being identical in value to one another than the usual ...

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 ...

MicroCloud Hologram Inc. (NASDAQ: HOLO), ("HOLO" or the "Company"), is a technology service provider. Because traditional quantum estimation methods often struggle to capture accurate parameter ...
