Increased electrification in vehicles is changing the way driver assistance systems are designed, says Yang Wang, with high-side switches increasingly used for resistive, capacitive and inductive ...

Many loads are mainly resistive; thus, they’re rated in watts (i.e., true power). Simply stated, these loads have a very small reactive component, which means an apparent power rating (VA) would not ...

This application note presents the process in designing LITTLE FOOT® power MOSFETs in surface mount packages. It describes the driving inductive loads with power MOSFETs, the common gate driver, as ...

Power factor correction uses parallel connected capacitors to oppose the effects of inductive elements and reduce the phase shift between the voltage and current. Power factor correction is a ...

• Electrical power sources supply two types of power to inductive loads: real power in kW and reactive power in VAR. • Power-factor correction circuits can be either an individual style or of the bank ...
