Electrical Devices vs Electronic Devices—What’s the difference?
WEBJun 6, 2016 · Electronic Devices. In contrast, electronic devices do much more. Instead of just converting electrical energy into light, heat, or motion, electronic devices are designed to manipulate the electrical current in ways that adds meaningful information to the current. For example, an electronic toaster uses the same heating elements, springs, and ...

Throwback Tech: 20 Old Products Modern Technology Replaced
WEBDec 2, 2013 · 12. Rounded TV screens. Older TVs operated from photons being fired from a photon gun in the back of the TV, hitting the screen in such a way to produce color pictures. The screens were rounded to provide ample distance from the electron gun (cathode) and the screen. Newer flatscreen models do not use this technology.
MOSFET vs. IGBT: What is the Difference? - Electronic Products
WEBOct 3, 2011 · There are many types of switch-mode power supply (SMPS) transistors to choose from today. Two of the more popular versions are the metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) and the insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT). Historically speaking, low-voltage, low-current and high switching frequencies favor MOSFETs.
Understanding the IEC 62368-1 standard for electronic equipment
WEBDec 20, 2021 · IEC 62368-1 now refers to a varistor as a possible ignition source, thus requiring additional tests. The varistor overload test (the Annex G.8 portion of the standard) is a stress test that progressively steps up the power in the varistor. The test uses an AC source to apply twice the equipment’s voltage rating through a resistor to the ...
What is Transient Voltage? - Electronic Products
WEBMay 24, 2013 · Transient voltage definition. Voltage Transients are defined as short duration surges of electrical energy and are the result of the sudden release of energy previously stored or induced by other means, such as heavy inductive loads or lightning. In electrical or electronic circuits, this energy can be released in a predictable manner via ...
Top 7 USB Oscilloscopes For Any Budget - Electronic Products
WEBJun 10, 2019 · The PicoScope 5000 series represents the most powerful of the USB PC-based oscilloscopes covered in this article.

Why doesn’t the US use 220V like everyone else in the world?
WEBSep 30, 2016 · First is the idea that the United States is the only country in the world to use the 120V 60Hz standard. The fact of the matter is that there are many other countries that primarily use 120V. To this end, there is no “everyone else in the world”. Some countries use 240V, some 230V, others 220V, and so on.
Throwback Tech: Old school cell phones - Electronic Products
WEBDec 6, 2013 · Electronic Products celebrates Throwback Thursday by taking a look at vintage cellular devices. We can all recall our very first cell phone. I remember vividly that mine was the Nokia 918. Google “ Nokia Brick,” and you’ll see it. If I dropped by phone, the only damage that would occur was to the floor, as the phone would stay fully intact.
