onsemi’s 1700-V EliteSiC MOSFETs and EliteSiC Schottky diodes provide reliable, efficient operation for energy infrastructure and industrial drive applications. The 1700-V NTH4L028N170M1 MOSFET brings ...

IN recent years it has become a well-known experimentally observed fact 1–5 that the breakdown voltages of certain non-uniform field gaps are strongly dependent on the shape of the applied voltage ...

After spending much of the 20th century languishing in development hell, electric cars have finally hit the roads in a big way. Automakers are working feverishly to improve range and recharge times to ...

Voltage references are critical components in any system because they determine system accuracy. They determine the accuracy of ADCs, DACs, and feedback systems. For example, in a correctly designed ...

The latest publication from portable test equipment expert, Megger, provides a compact yet comprehensive guide to the frequently misunderstood subject of oil dielectric breakdown voltage testing. The ...

After lying dormant in research laboratories for decades, silicon carbide (SiC) is beginning to realize its potential as a substrate material. [Transistor After lying dormant in research laboratories ...

This applies more to older vacuum technology than your average solid state hardware, but [Richard] put together an interesting project. It’s designed to test a component for its breakdown voltage ...
