Constant current limiting circuits are commonplace, but sometimes a constant power limiting function is desired instead. This can be because downstream loads, like DC/DC converters, present a constant ...

Littelfuse claims that its CPC1561B Solid State Relay (SSR) is the highest current (1 A, 60 V) normally-open SSR currently available on the market to integrate both current limiting and thermal ...

The importance of current limiting. A flexible solution for adding current limiting. In some power-management applications, precise current limiting is required. This is necessary either to protect ...

Question: Could I easily and precisely limit a current to my load? Answer: Yes, there are current limiting ICs available. In some power management applications, precise current limiting is required.

A solar day lamp is a simple, inexpensive device for bringing “daylight” to dark interior spaces whenever the sun is shining. This article provides complete instructions for designing lamps using both ...

Central Semiconductor has created a line novel of zero temperature coefficient current limiting diodes, packaged in DPAK and rated at between 27 and 575mA. Minimum voltages range across 1.5 to 2V – ...

Fault protection is a critical function of all power supply controllers. Nearly all applications require some kind of over-load protection. For peak current-mode controllers this is easily ...

One of the questions that hobbyists ask over and over is how to select the value of a current limiting resistor for an LED. Usually the seat of the pants response is: “Subtract 2 V from the supply ...
