While applications for 1-Phase PFC are now familiar and prevalent, the same is not the case with 3-Phase PFC. Many equipments using kilowatts of power from 3-Phase mains should be candidates of ...

Linear Technology Corporation’s LT3798 is an isolated flyback controller with single stage active power factor correction (PFC). Efficiencies greater than 86% can be achieved with output power levels ...

AC/DC power-factor correction (PFC) rectifiers are hugely benefitting from GaN FETs. They have very simple topologies; The inductor is the only magnetic part and this is usually a constant-frequency ...

Researchers at Germany’s Frauhofer ISE have analyzed the performance of a residential heat pump connected to a rooftop PV system relying on battery storage and have found that this combination ...

Is space-based solar power a costly, risky pipe dream? Or is it a viable way to combat climate change? Although beaming solar power from space to Earth could ultimately involve transmitting gigawatts, ...
