This tutorial will showcase how inductance, capacitance and resistance affect alternating current. A circuit may have the alternating current through it and the voltage across it rising and failing ...

Single-phase motors, adjustable-speed drives (ASDs), and power factor (PF) correction applications often depend on capacitors to operate properly. This article explains how to test these critical ...

The rules of the National Electrical Code are written for people who have a pre-existing knowledge of electricity. In order to make sense of the Code, you must first understand basic electrical ...

Members can download the PDF ebook. We all know that capacitors have a shunt resistance (leakage) and that leakage resistance should be pretty easy to measure, right? Wrong! I've measured a lot of ...

This paper presents two approaches to improve the performance of RF low noise amplifiers (LNAs) and downconversion mixers. One approach is for noise enhancement and the other is for improving flatness ...

As part of ongoing acoustic research scientists have created a workable sensor with the least possible resistance to motion. As part of ongoing acoustic research at Binghamton University, State ...

COC blend dielectric rated 25°C higher than standard film capacitors, enabling more compact DC-link designs for ...
