At the Applied Power Electronics Conference & Exposition (APEC 2025), celebrating its 40th year, over 300 exhibitors showcased their latest component advances for system power designers across a wide ...

Researchers demonstrated a novel technique to efficiently convert ambient low-power radiofrequency signals into DC power. This 'rectifier' technology can be easily integrated into energy harvesting ...

This brief tutorial explains how the “Wiegand effect” can be used as a reliable, low-cost, energy-harvesting system to power ...

As applications like hybrid and electric vehicles, industrial motor control, rail transportation, and renewable energy proliferate, power electronics devices and modules are emerging to serve in ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) shows the surface of the TaC thin film before and after annealing at high temperatures. The initial film surface is composed of many columnar grains, whereas after ...

Wireless charging has liberated some users from requiring cords and outlets, but the technology comes with limits, as devices must be within close proximity to RF-based or magnetic-induction wireless ...

The rapid acceleration of the power devices used in electric vehicles (EVs) is challenging chipmakers to adequately screen the ICs that power these vehicles.[1] While progress toward autonomous ...
