Typically, a power supply is comprised of a power transformer, which is then followed by a conventional bridge rectifier. The bridge rectifier is constructed using four diodes that are interconnected ...

A brief look at a twenty different diodes, their symbol variations, and a basic description. And yes, we're looking at tubes ...

Fig 1. In this typical redundant power system, three power supplies interface in parallel to the system load via internal ORing diodes. Fig 2. This HFE1600 series 19-in. rack-mount redundant power ...

I have a Sears deep-cycle lead-acid 12v battery already which I've only used once or twice a year for certain power applications. I was thinking of purchasing an identical model and wiring it in ...

For the longest time, Zener diode regulators have been one of those circuits that have been widely shared and highly misunderstood. First timers have tried to use it to power up their experiments and ...
