Reverse-current protection has become an integral part of overall power-system architecture. Selecting the appropriate ORing strategy requires balancing efficiency, thermal behavior, reliability, maintainability, and installation requirements. The goal is to develop redundant DC power systems that are more efficient and more robust throughout their operational lifetime.
Researchers from Edith Cowan University have found a source of naturally occurring hydrogen gas in Australia’s iron ore formations.
A new generation of circuit breakers is becoming the future backbone of the United States’ energy transition.
A shipment read non-conforming until the inspector realized which layer he had measured. Two-layer ESD matting carries two separate resistance specifications, not one.
The new 80 W regulated converters address higher-power industrial and distributed power applications by packing a wide 4:1 input window into a space-constrained, industry-standard 2×1-inch footprint.

Nanopower Semiconductor’s power-saving IC manages sensors and peripherals while keeping the host MCU off, with an idle current of just 200 nA.
The release of 2200 V PowiGaN technology marks the next major step in high-voltage GaN power conversion. Power supply engineers grappling with the challenge of higher power density in EVs, AI data centers, BESS, and photovoltaic converters (among others) will be able to stop designing around the voltage-limit problem inherent in conventional GaN switches.
Infineon, Skeleton, Vicor, the University of Birmingham, EPRI, and the Department of Energy are developing technologies for AI data centers, power supplies, fusion energy, and grid reliability.
