Alternating current (ac) or direct current (dc) circuits are capable of carrying very different currents, as illustrated by the ratings on the switch in Figure 1. This is why it’s so important for ...

AC or DC general-use snap switches may be used for control of inductive loads not exceeding _____% of the ampere rating of the switch at the applied voltage. Snap switches shall be used as noted in ...

The LS6506R is a pyroelectric infrared (PIR) sensor interface IC that is designed to drive a latching relay. However, the device can be used in a wall-switch configuration (no Neutral available) to ...

Designed with built-in protection for under-voltage, overvoltage, overload, and overtemperature, these devices enable the intelligent driving of capacitive, resistive, or inductive loads, which draw ...

Constructing a MOSFET switch is one of the basic level electronics projects and could be useful for beginners to get a hang of the various FET transistors. Read through the article to know more on ...

STMicroelectronics’ latest high-side switches, the IPS2050H and the IPS2050H-32, have been designed to permit two programmable current-limit values for smart driving of capacitive loads that draw high ...
