Voltage Sag Testing for Industrial Equipment—and a New Power Quality Measurement Technology
An electrical product should be able to ride through any regular voltage sag. Andreas Eberhard, Power Standards Labs, Alameda, California, USA Immunity from voltage sags is vital for reliable operation of our ever-more-sophisticated electronic controls and equipment. Every electrical product should be able to ride through typical voltage sags, but in many cases the first sag … [Read more...]
First Offshore Wind Farm in U.S. Approved
The federal government approved Wednesday the nation’s first offshore wind farm off the coast of Cape Cod, after nine years of regulatory review. The 130 Cape Wind turbines would lie in Nantucket Sound, about five miles from the nearest shoreline, and cover 24 square miles. The tip of the highest blade of each turbine would reach 440 feet above the water. While supporters say … [Read more...]
ESD-Protection Array Conserves PCB Real Estate
The TPD2E007 from Texas Instruments (TI) is an application-specific integrated parts (ASIP) component in a compact PicoStar™ package. This back-to-back diode array allows AC-coupled or negative-going data transmission without compromising signal integrity. It is embedded inside a PCB to conserve space in downsized portable applications. The TPD2E007 exceeds IEC 61000-4-2 (Level … [Read more...]
