Lithium-ion cells gradually discharge even when they are not connected to anything. Some self-discharge is normal. However, excess self-discharge indicates potentially catastrophic problems within the ...

“A novel method of oxide semiconductor nanoparticle synthesis is proposed based on high-voltage, high-current electrical switching discharge (HVHC-ESD). Through a subsecond discharge in the HVHC-ESD ...

Bourns Inc. has introduced its Model GDT25 series of gas discharge tubes (GDTs) that offers a 40% improvement in standard surge current ratings compared to the company’s existing models. The company ...

What is partial discharge? Methods for measuring PD. How PD impacts high-voltage cables. Partial discharge (PD) is evidence of a degrading insulation system, which could trigger costly repairs and ...

If you have a motley collection of 12V batteries in varying states of health, this simple circuit will allow you to easily check their capacity. It’s basically a high-current discharge load which is ...
