WeEn Semiconductors has unveiled a pair of 2,000V rectifiers in TO247 packaging, one rated at 90A and the other at 60A. They are the WND90P20W and the WND60P20W respectively. “These devices are ...

Both passive (e.g., resistors and diodes) and active redundancy structures (e.g., Switching Mode Power Supplies (SMPS), Low Dropout Regulators (LDOs) and MOSFETs) were investigated. Integrated ...

Even when the circuit was optimised ... (That module is shown in full in Figure 4 of Part 1.) Figure 1 Using a decent control loop for the feedback stabilises the oscillation level without adding ...

A Rectifier is an electronic circuit that converts ... more efficient, Full Wave Rectifiers have proven to be effective. Full Wave Rectifiers utilize both positive and negative half cycles of the ...

In a rectifier circuit, diodes are arranged in such a way that they only allow the positive half-cycles (in a half-wave rectifier) or both half-cycles (in a full-wave rectifier) of the AC to pass ...

Specifically, an silicon controlled rectifier and anti-parallel diode are added in each up-bridge-arm in the improved VSC. By conducting a dynamic control strategy of the firing angle on the SCRs, the ...

This concept has been applied in an undergraduate electronic circuit ... Square wave and sine wave input. 4) Adjust R3 to visually make sure the phase difference between the output sine wave and the ...

A simple and robust 36-pulse diode rectifier which consists of a conventional 12-pulse rectifier and a hybrid pulse multiplication interphase reactor (HPM-IPR) is proposed in this article. The HPM-IPR ...

When forward-biased, the Zener diode behaves like a normal silicon diode with PN junction, allowing a current to pass from the anode to the cathode When forward-biased, the Zener diode behaves like a ...
