More about Current (239)

| Although the Elektor Electronics USB interface described in the September 2000 issue allows the port current to be set for only one port, th...

| In the form of the LT1618, Linear Technology (www.lineartech.com) has made available a step-up switching regulator with a current limit mech...

| ICs for measuring currents usually employ external sense resistors with values of a few tens of milliohms. Not only are such resistors diffi...

| In measurement and control systems a common method of sending control or measurement data over long distances is by means of a ‘current loop...

| It’s always a bit difficult to measure the current in the positive lead of a power supply, such as a battery charger. Fortunately, special I...

| Transistors are often used for switching power supply voltages. MOSFETs are most often used, since they have low ‘on’ resistances, and they...

| Maxim has recently introduced a new integrated current meter IC called the MAX4173. It converts a current measured in the positive supply le...

| Current personal computers with an ATX motherboard are not provided with a switched mains output socket. It is therefore no longer possib...

| In certain direct-current operated circuits, such as DC-to-DC converters, the switch-on current may be so high that the output voltage of...

| The circuit shown in the diagram is intended for applications in which relatively large pulse-shaped signals are to be applied to a standa...
