Most switching power-supply controllers provide non-latching fault protection. Satisfying a requirement for a latchoff response to a fault often requires the addition of excessive and redundant ...

This circuit provides latching and high-speed overcurrent protection for power-factor corrected (PFC) boost converters operating at dc voltages to 380 V. Overcurrent damage of PFC front-end boost ...

Generally, the Art. 210 requirements for branch circuits are prerequisites for applying requirements found elsewhere. This fact is exemplified by the overcurrent protection requirements [Sec. 210.20].

Power converters are typically designed to protect against undesirable fault scenarios. For example, if too much current is being drawn on the converter output, overcurrent protection may engage. This ...

Article 240 provides the requirements for selecting and installing overcurrent protection devices (OCPDs). Depending on your application, other Articles may apply ...

Once an engineer has designed the audio circuit of an amplifier, it would be nice to think that most of their task is complete. However, from a system perspective, that is far from true. At the very ...

Toshiba Electronics has added the TB67H451FNG to its line-up of single channel brushed DC motor driver ICs. Housed in an HSOP8 package, the IC features non-latching overcurrent detection. The IC can ...
