Switching has almost always meant “hard" switching, which is simple but comes with all kinds of electrical and thermal stresses. Soft switching employs more sophisticated design to reduce stresses and ...

Scientists have pinpointed Y1 receptor neurons in the brain that can override chronic pain signals when survival instincts like hunger or fear take precedence. Acting like a neural switchboard, these ...

Thanks to their high robustness, they are predestined for use in electric vehicles, industrial drives, and aerospace applications, among others. The MOSFETs are available together with the ...

Proven MEMS-based technology optimized for high reliability, performance, and increased AI data center scalability Lumentum R300 OCS 300x300 port product currently being sampled by multiple customers ...

Lumentum Holdings Inc. has introduced its R300 optical circuit switch (OCS) featuring a 300x300 port capability, which is currently being sampled by multiple hyperscale customers. The product, ...

Explains the principles of transistor switching circuits, highlighting their role in electronic computers. It contrasts transistors with vacuum tubes, emphasizing that transistors function as ...

A load switch is an electronic switch. It works like a relay to power supply rails in systems, but it has no moving parts. Load switches are increasingly found in today’s portable electronic devices, ...

A new technical paper titled “Accelerating OTA Circuit Design: Transistor Sizing Based on a Transformer Model and Precomputed Lookup Tables” was published by University Minnesota and Cadence. “Device ...

The difference between high-side and low-side power switching is not apparent to many new designers but is a critical aspect of a viable circuit. Part 1 looked at the topology of high-side versus ...
