Switching has almost always meant “hard" switching, which is simple but comes with all kinds of electrical and thermal ...

Switching algebra is easily visualized using switches since there are only two values: on and off, or true and false. In digital systems we represent these as 1 and 0, respectively. There are only two ...

While the electromechanical switch is one of the last components designed into a circuit, selecting the right switch is an essential part of designing anything that has to be powered on including ...

Circuits as WAN connections battled successfully against packets for years because they guaranteed bandwidth, no matter what. If you bought a T-1 circuit, the service provider nailed up 1.5Mbps from ...

ABB has released the Switching Control Sentinel (SCS) device designed for high-voltage circuit breakers. Voltage and current transients generated during switching of high-voltage circuit breakers are ...

Integrated circuit technologies are enabling intelligent, chip-based, optical packet switch matrices. Rapid real-time re-configurability at the photonic layer using integrated circuit technologies is ...
