Power factor correction uses parallel connected capacitors to oppose the effects of inductive elements and reduce the phase shift between the voltage and current. Power factor correction is a ...

Modern integrated circuits are increasingly vulnerable to power supply noise and the ensuing induced jitter, phenomena that can significantly impair circuit reliability and performance. The interplay ...

Decreased system reliability due to overloaded power supplies is a common engineering challenge. In this Q&A-style article submitted by Allied Electronic & Automation, David Norton, technical ...

A special frequency determined by the values of the resistance, capacitance and inductance refers to the resonance in AC circuits. The resonant frequency point occurs where the inductive reactance of ...

Most AI chips being developed today run highly parallel series of multiply/accumulate (MAC) operations. More processors and accelerators equate to better performance. This is why it’s not uncommon to ...

How to measure harmonics in a power system. Methodologies for reducing power system harmonics. A look at "triplen" harmonics. The IEEE standard 3002.8-2018, “Recommended Practice for Conducting ...

One of the key technologies to enable scaling below 3nm involves delivering of power on the backside of a chip. This novel approach enhances signal integrity and reduces routing congestion, but it ...

The critical role of snubber circuits in minimizing ringing and overshoot. How snubber circuitry is evolving to adapt to trends in power electronics, like the rising interest in wide-bandgap ...

Have you heard the term "Teslaphoresis?" You can forgive yourself if you haven't because a group of scientists at Rice University just invented the term to describe a new phenomenon that could have ...
