Several different technologies and designs are available among solid-state switches today. The major families are the standard Triacs (triode for alternating current), the snubberless Triacs, and the ...

This AC power switch circuit senses the presence of AC current in one outlet of a multi-outlet power strip and switches power to the remaining outlet(s). It utilizes a current transformer, single ...

There are several ways to impellent microcontroller and thus network control of an AC-line switch. This idea shows an approach, complete with LTspice files, which presents design possibilities for ...

This article explains an upgraded smart solid-state AC switch system that uses microwave Doppler radar instead of traditional ...

The demand for convenient and reliable switching systems is increasing across homes, offices, and industrial environments.

When choosing a switch to use in an electrical design project, there is a perception that it is possible to use any switch, provided its current rating is greater than the maximum load in the circuit.
