Circuit protection manufacturers boost performance and deliver smaller footprints for applications ranging from vehicles to ...

This differs from the circuit shown in Figure 1 by not only the value of the limiting R but also the 2.2kΩ protects from voltages above +Vs. This is an example of the intricacies that must be fully ...

Or, you could turn to an active clamper circuit using an op amp or transistor circuit, but the simple diode provides an easy and cheap clamp. They are often used with sensitive inputs, like CMOS ...

Superconductivity is an advantageous property observed in some materials, which entails an electrical resistance of zero at ...

Also, you can't include a germanium diode in an IC. A superior configuration uses a bipolar transistor for these applications. Figure 1 shows the bipolar-inverted-clamp ... The circuit achieves this ...

SPICE circuit simulations ... of surge-protection circuits using transient-voltage-suppression (TVS) avalanche diodes. The small size, fast response time, low clamping voltage and low cost of ...

A design of voltage doubler circuit has been ... energy harvesting using 28 nm FD-SOI technology. After analysis of the operating constraints of the circuit, the choice was made in favour of NLVT ...
