There are numerous factors to consider when adding external capacitors to switched-mode power supplies (SMPS). This article will discuss noise, startup, ESR, stability, pre-bias applications, Sense ...

Kepco is offering an option for both the 200-W and 400-Wmodels in its BOP series of bipolar power supplies to enhance their ability todrive capacitive loads. This option, designated by the suffix C, ...

Parasitic capacitance lurks behind every corner of an electronic circuit. FET gates, cabling, ground and power planes all add to the Farad bottom line. When the capacitive load gets heavy in high ...

Kepco is pleased to introduce an option for its 200W and 400W BOP models to optimize their ability to drive capacitive loads. This option (designated by the suffix "C") makes the BOP more suitable for ...

The DS-2100 and the DS-2100 WiFi displays from Loadstar Sensors Inc. are load indicators designed to work seamlessly with the company's patented capacitive load sensors. The DS-2100 and the DS-2100 ...

Most load cells on the market use a cantilever outfitted with strain gages to measure loads. Such cells also need a bulky and expensive signal conditioner to make them useful. Engineers at Loadstar ...

Although shunt capacitors offer several advantages at all voltage levels, those advantages come at a price. Not only must you purchase, install, and maintain capacitor equipment, you must be able to ...

. The data can be imported to a PC with an RS-232 or 802.11b wireless connection. The displays work with Windows XP-based software that lets users calibrate the sensors, show individual and total ...
