When the lights go out and the house falls silent, you are not thinking about code books or wiring diagrams. You just want ...

An inductor is just a coil of wire, but it plays a key role in controlling how electricity behaves. In this video, you’ll learn how inductors resist changes in current, store energy in magnetic fields ...

Scientists in Japan have confirmed that ultra-thin films of ruthenium dioxide belong to a newly recognized and powerful class of magnetic materials called altermagnets. These materials combine the ...

Ceramic resonators offer an attractive alternative to quartz crystals for stabilizing oscillation frequencies in many ...

The world’s energy demand is rising, and NREL’s ULIS power module could help meet it. Demand for energy worldwide is climbing rapidly, driven in part by power hungry data centers that support ...

Single-phase power factor correction (PFC) circuits--a kind of front-end AC/DC converters--are ubiquitous in a variety of consumer electronic devices, including laptop adapters, LED driver power ...

The New York Power Authority has decided to pull the plug on its low-cost electricity allocations to Plug Power, the cash-strapped green hydrogen manufacturer that has backed out of its plan to build ...

The other day, I was casually scrolling through Google when I stumbled upon a flood of dirt-cheap RC snubber circuit modules on various online stores. That got me thinking—it’s high time we talk about ...

To help achieve more precise control of gene therapy, engineers have designed a new control circuit that can keep gene expression levels within a target range. The method could be used to deliver ...

Thyristors, three-terminal electronic components with bistable behavior, are used in switching and power control circuits, both in DC and AC regimes. Thyristors are three-terminal electronic ...

As electronic systems grow increasingly complex and energy-intensive, traditional power management methods — centered on centralized systems and external components — are proving inadequate. The next ...
