Varistor — A 385 volt metal oxide varistor A varistor is an electronic component with a diode like nonlinear current–voltage characteristic. The name is a portmanteau of variable resistor. Varistors are often used to protect circuits against excessive… … Wikipedia
Transient voltage suppression diode — A transient voltage suppression (TVS) diode is an electronic component used to protect sensitive electronics from voltage spikes induced on connected wires. It is also commonly referred to as a transorb, after the brand name TranZorb registered… … Wikipedia
Surge protector — A surge protector is an appliance designed to protect electrical devices from voltage spikes. A surge protector attempts to regulate the voltage supplied to an electric device by either blocking or by shorting to ground voltages above a safe… … Wikipedia
Current clamp — For current clamp recording in neurons, see Electrophysiology#Current clamp. In electrical and electronic engineering, a current clamp or current probe is an electrical device having two jaws which open to allow clamping around an electrical… … Wikipedia
Power supply — For the Budgie album, see Power Supply (album). A vacuum tube rackmount adjustable power supply, capable of +/ 1500 volts DC, 0 to 100mA output, with amperage limiting capability. A power supply is a device that supplies electrical energy … Wikipedia
Voltage multiplier — Villard cascade voltage multiplier. A voltage multiplier is an electrical circuit that converts AC electrical power from a lower voltage to a higher DC voltage, typically by means of a network of capacitors and diodes. Voltage multipliers can be… … Wikipedia
Schottky diode — The Schottky diode (named after German physicist Walter H. Schottky; also known as hot carrier diode) is a semiconductor diode with a low forward voltage drop and a very fast switching action.In the early days of wireless, cat s whisker detectors … Wikipedia
Holding current — The holding current in a silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) is the minimum current which must pass through the device in order for it to remain in the ON state. If the current falls below this point even briefly, the device may turn off.… … Wikipedia
