Capacitor discharge circuits are used extensively in fast pulse generation. In such applications, the capacitor's stray inductance (or equivalent series inductance) and series resistance play an ...

This chapter covers representative general-purpose relays used in the control circuits of most industrial, commercial, and consumer products. Relay names and terminology are in accordance with ...

The PVY116 microelectronic relay (MER) handles test signals up to 450 MHz, a characteristic said to improve ATE system throughput and efficiency. Smaller than dry or mercury-wetted reed relays, the ...

Found in a multitude of devices, relays are simple electromechanical switches featuring an electromagnet, one or more electrical contacts, a movable iron armature that is attracted by the magnetic ...

Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and computer-based controllers are great for handling logic and data-collection tasks for industrial controls. But when it comes to driving motors, heaters, ...
