The alternator is a device that keeps your car’s electrical system running once the engine is on. It’s essentially a small generator that converts mechanical energy into electricity, bolted to the ...

Have you ever wondered what made car manufacturers decide to go from dynamos to alternators for generating electricity? It's a mix of reliability and cost.

Abstract: Design of low-cost voltage sensing method of three-phase synchronous rectifiers with high-efficiency for automotive alternators is proposed in this paper. A new control strategy and low-cost ...

Diodes Inc.’s 80-V ideal-diode controllers provide robust protection against reverse connections and voltage transients for ...

Abstract: The FinFET architecture has widely been used in the digital circuit application, due to the good short channel effect control and driving current boost. However, the worse thermal dispassion ...

The authors study a disordered β-Ta film, finding that quasiparticle recombination is governed by the phonon scattering time, which is faster than conventional recombination in ordered superconductors ...

The insertion of thin cobalt layers increases the thermal stability of β-tungsten. Using this composite as the spin current source in a 64-kb spin–orbit torque magnetic random-access memory array ...
