Despite the widespread availability and use of low-power components, today’s printed circuit boards (PCBs) can require a significant amount of current, with boards drawing 50, 100, and even 200 A in ...

Voltage drop at advanced nodes is a deadly serious problem that has become unmanageable with the methodologies used by most chip designers today. This article will cover the reasons why power ...

Environmental systems that precipitate dust and carbon particles frequently use high-voltage dc power supplies. However, failure of high-voltage components caused by a change in their properties over ...

At one time a relatively infrequent occurrence, voltage drop is now a major impediment to reliability at advanced nodes. Decades ago, voltage drop was only an issue for very large and high-speed ...

Inevitably, industrial facilities are going to have 460VAC, 3-phase motor loads. And, of course, since voltage drop is considered mainly a performance issue, maximum voltage drop rules on a circuit ...

The application of Aerial Spacer Cable Systems (ASCS) in heavily treed areas is very common amongst electric utilities. There are a number of other applications including multiple-circuits, long-spans ...

Remote-sense wires are a “necessary evil “in tightly-regulated, higher-current supplies (especially with longer supply leads), where they are needed to accurately sense the voltage at the load despite ...

This newest extension to our eHV high-voltage connector portfolio offers a compact, efficient solution that increases sourcing flexibility while easing integration into space-constrained systems.” The ...
