The project was built and designed to measure the quality of AC voltage using a harmonic distortion meter based on PIC18F2550. The project was built and designed to measure the quality of AC voltage ...

When harmonic content exceeds the recommended limits in IEEE 519 Recommended Practice and Requirements for Harmonic Control in Electric Power Systems, correction needs to be made to avoid interference ...

The proliferation of end-use electrical and electronic loads in customer facilities — residential, commercial, and industrial — is not slowing down. Despite economic pressures, utility customers are ...

A critical measure for all audio components is distortion, typically specified as total harmonic distortion (THD) or total harmonic distortion + noise (THD+N). THD is defined as: ... THD+N is the rms ...

A detailed analysis of the total harmonic distortion for a nonisolated boost topology with average current-mode control using the UC1854A and the UCC3817. IAC = Current reference. Ideally, IAC is a ...

We all know what distortion sounds like. We’ve heard it in heavy metal tunes, cheap iPod docks and the crummy speakers at Taco Bell drive-thrus. And we’ve all read distortion specs on things like ...

From earlier work in this series, distortion from the small-signal stages may be kept to levels that will prove negligible compared with distortion from a closed-loop output stage. Similarly, future ...
