As the primary switching device used in a broad range of power conversion applications, MOSFETs play a central role in power supply design. Defining their performance characteristics is crucial to ...

Sendyne introduced the SFP100EVB, a turnkey module for precision measurement of current, voltage and temperature. Operating in the automotive temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C, the module ...

[DainBramage] needed a DC ammeter to check how long his amateur radio station would be able to stay powered on battery backup power. The one’s he already had on hand were a Clamp Meter, which could ...

The main advantage a good clamp meter gives you is being able to measure current without shutting off the power. You don’t have to strip back insulation either. This makes them very popular with ...

Fluxgate current sensors have emerged as a robust technology for the measurement of both alternating and direct currents, harnessing the non-linear magnetic characteristics of ferromagnetic materials.

A common data logging application is measuring voltage or current flowing into or out of a piece of equipment, such as a user monitoring current in solar cells, inverters, or storage batteries. These ...

While it's often best to call an electrician if you suspect you have a dangerous electrical issue, you can also safely diagnose many of those problems yourself with a multimeter, which is why it's ...

Allegro MicroSystems has introduced a pair of surface-mount current sensors that work from dc to 5MHz. Variants allow six sensitivities between 66mV/A (±20A range) and 20.3mV/A (±65A). Response time ...

Despite the fact that solar power accounts for such a small percentage of power generation worldwide, the market for photovoltaics continues to rise. And with the recent news that renewable energy ...
