This document presents switching power supplies in focus. It tackles about the types, uses, functions and advantages of switching power supplies compared to the other ones. It also discusses some ...

Power MOSFETs are well known for superior switching speed, and they require very little gate drive power because of the insulated gate. In these respects, power MOSFETs approach the characteristics of ...

We always enjoy [w2aew’s] videos, and his latest on zener diodes is no exception. In it, he asserts that all Zener diodes are not created equal. Why? You’ll have to watch the video below to find out.

It is widely recognized that high-power diode lasers (HPDLs) are compact, portable and highly reliable. Recent advances in their output power and the efficiency of their electrical-to-optical power ...

The High-Repetition-Rate Advanced Petawatt Laser System (HAPLS) under construction in the Czech Republic is designed to generate a peak power of more than 1 quadrillion watts (1 petawatt, 10 15 watts) ...
