Abstract: Reducing the number of active switches is substantial for obtaining a simple, reliable, high-efficiency, and cost-effective AC/AC voltage converter. In this paper, two topologies of ...

Melexis debuted its monolithic silicon RC snubber designed explicitly for SiC power modules. Melexis debuted its monolithic silicon RC snubber specifically designed for silicon carbide (SiC) power ...

Melexis is creating all-silicon RC snubbers for integrating within silicon carbide power modules. Currently sampling to potential customers, the parts will all be variants of the new part number ...

Snubber circuits are commonly connected across semiconductor switches for protection. Common ways of protection include suppressing V-I spikes and ringing, complying with SOA, resonance suppression, ...

Claude H. Foster of Cleveland, inventory promoter, manufacturer, called his new automobile horn in 1904 after the name of that golden trumpet by which the archangel will at some unknown date announce ...

Relays and contactors use a variety of technologies to switch signals and power connections. Many devices called relays use similar techniques and topologies, but the terminology can be confusing.

The critical role of snubber circuits in minimizing ringing and overshoot. How snubber circuitry is evolving to adapt to trends in power electronics, like the rising interest in wide-bandgap ...
