prof. Sam Ben-Yaakov discusses in detail considerations for solenoid drive and notes ability for the MOSFETs to absorb the inductor kickback.

On-board charging systems (OBCs) are an essential part of any fully electric and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. Their main objective is to convert AC power external charging source into a DC voltage in order to charge the vehicle's battery...

Designers, manufacturers, importers, and installers of electronic systems must demonstrate that their products do not generate or suffer from electromagnetic interference (EMC). And this is not easy! Really, it is difficult! Delays, unexpected costs, nerves and stress, or loss...

System Efficient ESD Design (SEED) address the protection of I/O against ESD using simulation. This allows to predict the robustness against damaging ESD and allows to reduce the likelihood of disturbances caused by ESD (soft-failure). Reduced design margin due...

Problems that arise when implementing an RF filter in modern signal interfaces are discussed. Effectiveness of filters under realistic impedance conditions, via peripheral cables in comparison to the 50Ohm-system are shown. Filter topologies are compared, the influence of filter...

The control of EMI in electronic devices is an increasing issue faced by designers in order to ensure that devices comply with EMC requirements. The EMC testing process can reveal that the shielding of a certain area of a...

Often the success of an EMC test is closely related to the DCDC power supply on boards. This seminar will show the influence of different PCB designs as well as the passive components on the EMC signature using a...

prof. Sam Ben-Yaakov in his video explains switching frequency impact to ferrite losses and its importance for proper design of magnetics, inductors, transformers, converters, inverters, PWM and power electronics.
