‘Overload Protection’

An Electronicstalk guide

Start with the news release Outdoor cooler uses bi-polar thermostatic control from Laird Technologies, which we summarised at the time by saying "Laird Technologies has announced the release of its outdoor thermoelectric cooler series with bi-polar thermostatic control. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release MSC distributes YDS DC/DC converters from MSC Vertriebs: "MSC is now offering the 95DW-R3 series 20W DC/DC converters from YDS, which can be used in various measurement equipment and other device requiring a precisely regulated voltage. ".
 
In December 2010, we covered the news from Diodes Incorporated - take a look at Self-protected MOSFETs for automotive applications which says: "Suiting automotive and industrial applications, Diodes Incorporated's new self-protected MOSFETs are suitable for switching inductive loads, such as motors, relays and lamps at low frequencies. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Texas Instruments, Power-management controller for standard MOSFETs, as well as Transducers suited to shock and vibration tests from RDP Electronics, and 1W power supplies offer efficiency of 89 per cent from Aimtec.
