Growing concerns about energy efficiency have led to the development of electronics with higher power density. In grid-connected and industrial applications, such as AC motor control, uninterruptible ...

A company named LEM introduces its Model LK60 clamp-on leakage-current meter for non-invasive checks of insulation resistance. Leakage current measurement can be used to assess the state of electrical ...

Some of the most challenging leakage-current-testing requirements are those for patient-monitoring devices—both invasive and noninvasive. Such testing can be time-consuming and expensive, so it is ...

Key considerations for using a low current source include the maxi­mum current, minimum current, and step resolution; the output settling time required; and the level of voltage compliance needed. It ...

In Part 1, I described the LVDS signaling standards and the architecture of LVDS module used in a microcontroller. The signal specifications need robust characterization and functional tests to avoid ...
