A 20-volt level was added in a revision named "class B" of the specification. [12] [13] The voltage range of the successor Pump Express Plus 2.0 is between 5 volts and 20 volts, with 0.5 volts steps. The Quick Charge 3.0 protocol supports finer-grain voltage levels with 0.2 volts steps and has a lower minimum voltage of approximately 3.3 volt.

The voltage of the power outlet is usually near 12 V DC, and may be elevated between 13.5 V to 15 V while the engine is running. On trucks, the voltage of the power outlet may be near 24 V DC. The 12 V power circuit is protected by a car fuse, often rated at 10 to 20 amperes, which provides 120 to 240 watts of power. Large appliances such as ...
Consider a direct-current circuit with a nine-volt DC source; three resistors of 67 ohms, 100 ohms, and 470 ohms; and a light bulb—all connected in series. The DC source, the conductors (wires), the resistors, and the light bulb (the load ) all have resistance ; all use and dissipate supplied energy to some degree.
Power electronics is the application of electronics to the control and conversion of electric power. The first high-power electronic devices were made using mercury-arc valves . In modern systems, the conversion is performed with semiconductor switching devices such as diodes , thyristors , and power transistors such as the power MOSFET and IGBT .

Applications that once were thought to require higher voltages, such as electrical power steering, were subsequently achieved with 12-volt systems. [1] In the late 2000s, 42-volt electrical components were used in only a few automotive applications, since incandescent light bulbs work well at 12 volts and switching of a 42-volt circuit is more ...
A crowbar circuit is an electrical circuit used for preventing an overvoltage or surge condition of a power supply unit from damaging the circuits attached to the power supply.
