Increase of capacitors’ energy density is of prime interest in number of today’s applications. High energy density, high voltage capacitors are especially needed in fast-growing segments such as automotive, renewable energy generation and transmission, medical etc. This paper evaluates high energy density low Curie ceramic dielectric materials. The paper was presented by Tomas Zednicek, EPCI, Czech Republic at the 3rd PCNS 7-10th September 2021,...

Custom designed inductive components are widely used in the design of power conditioning equipment to individualize the conversion of energies for specific purposes. These components can be approved for application by individual qualification campaign either as a one off based on various international standards, as a qualified entry to the Qualified Parts List (QPL) or as a component designed, manufactured, and tested by a...

Standards are a form of technical infrastructure, and their influence is felt throughout the electronics industry. For example, formed in 1924, the Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) was an American standards organization that established an alliance of trade associations in the United States electronics manufacturing industry. Their collaboration ensured that electronic equipment produced by different manufacturers was compatible and interchangeable. The EIA formally dissolved in...
