What is Capacitor Leakage Current and how to reduce it What is Capacitor Leakage Current and How to Reduce It

The capacitor is the most common component in electronics and is used in almost every electronics application. There are many types of capacitors available in the market for serving different purposes in any electronic circuit. They are available in many different values from 1 pico-Farad to 1 Farad capacitors and Supercapacitors. Capacitors also have different types of…

Nodal Voltage Analysis Nodal Voltage Analysis

Analyzing circuit network is a crucial part in designing or working with pre-designed circuits, which deals with current and voltage in each node or branch of circuit network. However, this analyzing process to find out current, voltage or wattage of a node or branch, is a bit complex as lot of components are connected together. Proper analyzing also depends upon the…

The Physics Behind Current Sensing Current Sensing Solutions in EV/HEV Batteries

The electric vehicle market is picking up quite rapidly across the globe. Estimates show that the number of electric vehicles on the road around the world will hit 125 million by 2030.Global market for Electric Vehicles (EV) and Hybrid. To control energy flow and optimize efficiency in HEV/EV powertrain subsystems such as Traction Inverters, On-Board Chargers (OBC…

Dual Converter: Working, Modes and Types An Overview of Dual Converters

In the previous tutorial, we saw how a Dual Power Supply Circuit is designed. Now, we learn about Dual Converters, which can convert AC to DC and DC to AC at the same time. As the name suggests, Dual Converter has two converters, one converter works as a rectifier (Converts AC to DC) and the other converter works as an inverter (converts DC into AC). Both converters are…

Thyristor Commutation Techniques Thyristor Commutation Techniques

To turn on a Thyristor, there are various triggering methods in which a trigger pulse is applied at its Gate terminal. Similarly, there are various techniques to turn off a Thyristor; these techniques are called Thyristor Commutation Techniques. It can be done by bringing the Thyristor back into the forward blocking state from the forward conduction state. To bring the…

DC Circuit Theory DC Circuit TheoryWhat is DC?

In elementary school, we learned that everything is made by atoms. This is a product of three particles: Electrons, Protons and Neutrons. As the name suggest Neutron does not have any charge whereas Protons are positive and Electrons are negative.

In atom, electrons protons and neutrons stay together in a stable formation, but if by any…

Thyristor What is Thyristor and How it works?

In general, Thyristors are also switching devices similar to transistors. As we already discussed, Transistors are the tiny electronic components that changed the world. Today we can find them in every electronic device like TVs, mobiles, laptops, calculators, earphones, etc. They are adaptable and versatile, but that doesn’t mean that they can be used in every…

Transformerless Power Supply Transformerless Power Supply

Generating low-voltage DC from the 220V or 110V AC mains is very useful and necessary in the field of electronics. Low voltage DC, like 5v, 6v, 9v, 12v, is used in electronics circuits, LED bulbs, toys and many household electronics items. Generally, batteries are used to power them, but they need to be replaced from time to time, which is not cost-effective and also takes…
