Since the mid-1980s, semiconductor technology has promised to provide smart power products for solid-state relays that could carry high current and provide unique functions for customers. However, ...

Automotive electronic control applications require robust input power conditioning. The circuitry must absorb 100-V transients on one hand, while providing a stable dc bus for a few hundred ...

Most of Europe’s 240 million electricity meters are expected to be replaced by smart meters by 2020. It is currently estimated that approximately 78 million of these meters will need to use AC ...

Relays are often used as electrically controlled switches. Unlike transistors, their switch contacts are electrically isolated from the control input. On the other hand, the power dissipation in a ...
