A current-limiting circuit is often needed to protect the most expensive parts of the circuit from transients such as current spikes, which occur when a power supply is driving a large capacitive load ...

A version of thie article appeared in the February 2012 issue of Test & Measurement World. See the PDF. Many industrial systems use the 4–20-mA loop to transmit measurements from sensors to displays, ...

There are many cases where a power supply needs an internal current-limiter function, usually built using a current sensor, a control circuit, and a pass transistor. The current sensor itself can be a ...

Combining Cor Van Rij's JFET test socket with two DMMs, a current limiter, switches and a wall wart yield a simple, accurate ...

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. has introduced a new series of insulated, surface-mount inrush current limiting positive ...
