Many applications today, including industrial machinery, power tools and other high current equipment, use limiting inrush current as a major design consideration to combat the problematic effects of ...

Digi-Key, in collaboration with Ametherm, presents a PTM describing transformer protection from inrush current using the NTC thermistor. This will provide a problem statement describing the inrush ...

Inrush currents arise when iron-core power transformers are energised under no-load conditions, producing transient peaks many times greater than the rated current. These surges stem from magnetic ...

SURGE-GARD series devices, available from Mouser Electronics, are capable of handling high steady-state currents to 36A and input energy to 250 J. The Ametherm SURGE-GARD series devices, available ...

Ametherm has acquired the SURGE-GARD inrush current limiter product line, formerly manufactured by RTI Electronics, from Measurement Specialties Inc., a global designer and manufacturer of sensors and ...

LEIDEN, Netherlands and MILPITAS, Calif., March 28, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- IXYS Corporation (NASDAQ:IXYS), a global manufacturer of power semiconductors and ICs for energy efficiency, power ...

Motors differ from other types of loads in one important way: The motor needs much more current to start than to run. This temporary, but significant, inrush current is what complicates motor circuit ...
