The input stage of an off-line power converter usually contains an LC averaging filter. A common practice is to damp the LC filter using additional reactive/dissipative components. In this article, we ...

A research team led by Prof. MENG Guowen and Prof. HAN Fangming from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), along with Prof. WEI Bingqing from the University ...

The Type PFCH capacitor series from Cornell Dubilier Electronics, intended for the ac output of large inverter systems, filter undesirable harmonics before power is delivered to the grid or load. The ...

According to the IEEE Standard Dictionary of Electrical and Electronic Terms, power factor (PF) is defined as the ratio of the circuit power (watts) to the circuit volt-amperes. This is described by ...

Not all UPS designs are the same. As a result of cost savings in the very competitive UPS market, some designs may not have the highest level of component reliability. Capacitors are an integral part ...

The engineer has to design in power-rail filtering to meet the manufacturer’s specifications for output clock jitter in phase-lock loops (PLLs) and crystal oscillators. There are two types of power ...

The LR2 line reactor series adds seven new frame sizes to match all GS, DURApulse, and WEG drives. The LR2 Series can also be used with a variety of other variable frequency drives (VFD) ...
