Hot-swap circuits are among those measures put in place to protect equipment or personnel, or both. Some power supplies, for example, have built-in and adjustable current limiting (standard in ...

I use an old ATX PSU as a bench supply for my projects and needed a simple & cheap adjustable current limiting circuit. I use an old ATX PSU as a bench supply for my projects and needed a simple & ...

Adding a clamp circuit to the well known current-limiter protects the "pass" transistor from over-currents when load faults occur. Most readers are probably familiar with two-terminal current-limiting ...

Download this article in PDF format. It’s now common to see circuit boards that carry hundreds of amps, especially in intensive data-processing applications, electric vehicles, and ac distribution.

Here at Hackaday we really like to feature projects that push the limits of what’s possible, or ones that feature some new and exciting technology that nobody has ever seen before. So what’s so ...

On April 14, in Jinchang city, Gansu province, as soon as the command was given, an artificially simulated single-phase instantaneous grounding short-circuit arc was instantly triggered at the ...
