The Exar XR-2206 function-generator IC cangenerate square, triangular, and sinusoidalsignals with low distortion. Its outputfrequency is inversely proportionalto the components in an RC ...

RS, a high-service global product and service solutions provider for industrial customers, offers Schneider Electric's ...

Many power ICs use frequency jitter, which spreads a control signal's spectrum, to control EMI (electromagnetic interference). If you need to add frequency jitter to power ICs that control three-phase ...

A recent trend in nuclear power plant upgrades has been the replacement of the motor-generator (MG) sets that drive the reactor circulating pumps with variable-frequency drives (VFD). Siemens’ first ...

In the ham radio trade, gear such as the old Drake units [Dr. Scott M. Baker] has in his radio shack are often referred to as “boat anchors.” It refers to big, heavy radios that were perhaps a bit ...

The way we control the speed of fan motors or pump motors has tremendously changed in the past two decades with the introduction of variable-frequency drives (VFDs), aka variable-frequency controllers ...

AC drives offer significant market opportunities due to their role in enhancing energy efficiency and supporting automation and sustainable practices. Key growth drivers include their applicability in ...

A dc motor driving an ac alternator was used to simulate an asynchronous wind electric generator. The output was used to drive a commercial air conditioning unit containing a hermetically sealed three ...

Lasers normally emit only one color, or frequency of light. This is true for laser pointers or the laser diodes in a DVD player. [Kevin] caught wind of state-of-the-art research into making variable ...

Synchrotek, Inc. offers a line of standard and custom electric generators that feature variable speed input, which permits the power source to rotate at its optimal speed. This arrangement is ideal ...
