Editor’s note: I had previously reviewed this book by Efficient Power Conversion's talented power experts and found it to be very instructive for power designers, students, and anyone interested in ...

The High Voltage and Currents in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) create technical challenges for power conversion beyond those normally associated with vehicle electrical and electronic systems.

Efficiency is an assessment of how well time and effort are used to accomplish a specific task. If that task is the conversion of one form of power to another, the efficiency of the conversion ...

Laser power conversion and photovoltaic systems represent a rapidly evolving field where optical energy is directly transformed into electrical power using specialised semiconductor devices. Recent ...

Properties of wide-bandgap materials, with a focus on SiC. How a bridgeless totem-pole topology can help cut losses. A breakdown of the half-bridge inverter topology The efficiency of power-conversion ...

Global demand for green hydrogen is high and rising fast. Some studies predict that the electrical power demand to produce green hydrogen will be 4500 GW by 2050, compared to today’s (2023) electrical ...

What do billions of dollars’ worth of research, football games, government shutdowns, police escorts and dry ice have to do with a university’s heating plant? As it turns out, everything. A wide range ...

USB sockets providing 5 VDC are so ubiquitous as a power source that just about any piece of modern portable technology can use them to run or charge. USB power is so common, in fact, that it’s easy ...
