Previous studies have shown that the synchronous switch energy extraction (SSEE) solutions could enhance the energy harvesting capability of vibration energy harvesters with capacitive output ...

Airbags have been in development since the 1950s, were first used on the 1973 Oldsmobile Toronado, and have been standard equipment in the U.S. since 1999. Airbags are proven lifesavers, so why do ...

The machinery inside of each human cell usually behaves like a dimmer, turning genes up or down as needed. A new analysis shows that hundreds of human genes shun the dimmer and act more like a light ...

Shohei Ohtani essentially threw a rehab start at Dodger Stadium against the San Diego Padres Monday. Too valuable as a hitter to the Los Angeles Dodgers to send to a normal minor league rehab stint to ...

In this study, we present a mixed-signal framework that utilizes MRAM (Magneto-resistive Random Access Memory) technology to emulate behaviors observed in biological neural networks on silicon ...

Abstract: Integrated Gate-Commutated Thyristors (IGCTs) have been widely used in DC circuit breakers to replace traditional power electronic devices due to their excellent ability to withstand surge ...

The difference between high-side and low-side power switching is not apparent to many new designers, but it is a critical aspect of a viable circuit. Applying power (voltage and current) to a load and ...
