When we speak of efficiency, we are referring mainly to electrical efficiency. This usage, however, is a restriction of the meaning of the word efficiency itself. In power-electronics applications the ...

Although they require more complex circuits, three-level inverters are more efficient than their two-level cousins. Effective partitioning simplifies implementation of the three-level configuration.

The 74HC3G14 and 74HCT3G14 are triple inverters with clamp diodes at the inputs. These devices are designed for astable multivibrators, monostable multivibrators, and pulse shapers for highly noisy ...
