  2. TRIAC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRIAC

    When the gate current is discontinued, if the current between the two main terminals is more than what is called the latching current, the device continues to conduct. Latching current is the minimum current that keeps the device internal structure latched in the absence of gate current. The value of this parameter varies with:

  3. Thyristor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyristor

    The thyristor is a four-layered, three-terminal semiconductor device, with each layer consisting of alternating N-type or P-type material, for example P-N-P-N. The main terminals, labelled anode and cathode, are across all four layers. The control terminal, called the gate, is attached to p-type material near the cathode.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structure_Chart

    Example of a Structured Chart. [ 1 ] A structure chart (SC) in software engineering and organizational theory is a chart which shows the breakdown of a system to its lowest manageable levels. [ 2 ] They are used in structured programming to arrange program modules into a tree. Each module is represented by a box, which contains the module's name.

  5. Power semiconductor device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_semiconductor_device

    Contents. Power semiconductor device. A power semiconductor device is a semiconductor device used as a switch or rectifier in power electronics (for example in a switch-mode power supply). Such a device is also called a power device or, when used in an integrated circuit, a power IC. A power semiconductor device is usually used in "commutation ...

    Working principle‍. Semiconductor. Invented. 1959. Electronic symbol. IGBT schematic symbol. An insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) is a three-terminal power semiconductor device primarily forming an electronic switch. It was developed to combine high efficiency with fast switching. It consists of four alternating layers (NPNP) [ 1 ][ 2 ...

  7. Power electronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_electronics

    A PCs power supply is an example of a piece of power electronics, whether inside or outside of the cabinet. 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 ...

  8. High-level synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-level_synthesis

    High-level synthesis (HLS), sometimes referred to as C synthesis, electronic system-level (ESL) synthesis, algorithmic synthesis, or behavioral synthesis, is an automated design process that takes an abstract behavioral specification of a digital system and finds a register-transfer level structure that realizes the given behavior.
