A DC motor is one of the most basic motors you can get, and it helps convert electrical energy to mechanical energy. DC motors are classified into three main sub-types: brushed motors, universal motors, and permanent magnet motors. These…

As our need for battery power increases and the amount of space available to generate and contain that power decreases, ultrathin batteries are in high demand, particularly for use in medical monitoring devices. Recently a scientific…

Two new UnitedSiC devices are offering designers more powerful performance. The new products offer RDS(on) values of 30mohms (UF3C065030T3S) and 80mohms (UF3C065080T3S). The three-leaded, industry-standard TO220-3L package features…

The answer is: Zombies. Working to figure out how to keep decomposing molecules from shortening the overall lifespan of an organic aqueous flow battery, Harvard University researchers discovered that creating zombies is the answer.…

With more than 3% of power generated worldwide devoted to maintaining data storage, our need for more energy-efficient ways to store data grows exponentially as the amount of data we want to store increases. Traditionally, data is…

As battery-powered device use becomes increasingly commonplace, the push is on to replace Lithium-ion batteries with cheaper and safer sodium batteries. Sodium batteries cut costs and remove the possibility of ignition in transit since…

Traps in organic semiconductors cause charge carriers to get stuck, which has made them poor at conducting current compared with silicon or other inorganic material semiconductors. N-type materials with charge carriers in the form of…

With a compact footprint (1"x1"), the new REC15E-Z Series converters are ideal for use in cost-sensitive applications where board space is at a premium.

A research team at Ohio State University has discovered a way to simplify how electronic devices use electrons—using a material that can serve dual roles in electronics, where historically multiple materials have been necessary. “We have…

If you're not in Anaheim, but still want to know about the latest happenings at the Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC), eeDesignIt brings you a list of this week's APEC highlights. UnitedSic and Analog Devices, Inc.…
