CompactPCI Plus standard can enhance data transfer
04 December, 2009 | Supplied by: Dominion Electronics
One unfortunate side-effect of technological advancements is that they often force end users to accept an 'all-or-nothing' choice between a major investment in enhanced speed and capability, or live with less-than-optimum performance to protect the investment in an installed technology base.
Reliable power electronics for windmill generators
04 December, 2009 | Supplied by: Semikron Danfoss
In the megawatt range, high-power electronics applications need powerful semiconductors. However, even the largest semiconductors available today are still not strong enough for some applications. It is therefore necessary to connect them in parallel. The parallel connection of semiconductor devices in a traditional power electronics circuit is very common.
