At one time, almost all electrical loads were linear — those that weren't made up such a small portion of the total that they had little effect on electrical system operation. That all changed, ...

Understanding the causes, similarities, and differences between current and voltage distortion will help you pinpoint most power quality problems. When a writer or speaker mentions harmonic distortion ...

Coming to grips with the semantics and vocabulary that apply to “distortion” takes a little discipline, but it isn’t all that intimidating. All you need is a little patience to go over the relevant ...

A detailed analysis of the total harmonic distortion for a nonisolated boost topology with average current-mode control using the UC1854A and the UCC3817. IAC = Current reference. Ideally, IAC is a ...

The circuit of Figure 1 generates sinusoids down to very low frequencies with distortion in the region of 3% or less, yet has no feedback or gain-stabilizing components because none are needed. It ...
