Current sense transformers (CST) are used for controlling and protecting circuits as well as detecting loads in power supplies. Epcos has developed two new CST series that are particularly suited for ...

A switch-mode converter circuit uses a controlled power semiconductor switching technique along with an inductor, transformer, or capacitor as an energy-storage element to transfer dc power from ...

The two most common forms of control in dc/dc switching power converters are CM (current-mode) and VM (voltage-mode) control. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages. CM control provides ...

Today, 80% of all input/output (I/O) devices in automation applications are supplied with 24VDC power. The second most popular voltage is 120VAC, which is used on 15% of all I/Os. Over the past decade ...

Feb. 13, 2008 Murata Power Solutions’ 5300, 5400 and 5500 series of surface-mount current-sense transformers can be used to measure or monitor ac currents in high-frequency applications ...
