Abstract: This paper proposes a novel switch open-circuit (O.C.) fault detection and fault-tolerant method for cascaded cross-switched inverters (CCSIs). Although CCSIs offer the advantage of ...

Abstract: Fault tolerance is a highly desirable feature for safety-critical electric drive applications. This paper proposes an open-circuit fault tolerant model predictive controller (FT-MPC) for ...

BGE reviews several alternatives for a battery open-circuit monitoring device to protect from a dc supply single point of failure. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission issued Order 867 on Jan. 23, ...

What is a desaturation detection circuit? A desaturation fault detection circuit provides protection for power semiconductor switches (IGBT or MOSFETs) against short-circuit current events which may ...

Omron has introduced EtherNet/IP Remote I/O blocks with both short- and open-circuit detection to reduce troubleshooting time and maintain productivity. The ERT1 series EtherNet/IP slave I/O blocks ...

Thermocouples and their leads often have to detect open-circuit or short-circuit faults. However, it is very difficult to distinguish a valid millivolt temperature signal from an open/short-circuited ...

In order to continuously improve the transparency of power distribution grids, it is important to have precise knowledge about the relevant conditions in the local grid. This is achieved by utilizing ...

I, Brian Wang, interviewed Andrei Petrenko, Head of Product at Quantum Circuits and Neil Wu Becker, Head of Marketing for Quantum Circuits. Quantum Circuits presented at Q2B 2024 Silicon Valley at the ...
