“Two halves make a whole” is a very old and often true maxim. For example, it’s almost always true when said about AC phase angle power control. You rarely want significant alternating half-cycle ...

Full-wave rectifiers with capacitor filters are, without question, the workhorse — and the unsung hero — of the modern electronic world and for the gadgets we have come to enjoy. That being said, it ...

A new family of 1200V IGBTs has been optimized for lowest switching losses and smoothest turn-off in higher frequency and motor control applications. This paper will explain new approaches such as the ...
