A typical thermoelectric module consists of an array of Bismuth Telluride semiconductor pellets that have been “doped” so that one type of charge carrier– either positive or negative– carries the majority of current.
The increasing performance and integration of electronic components has not only enabled greater equipment functionality but often delivers this in smaller and smaller form factors.
IEC 60601 is a series of technical standards for the safety and effectiveness of medical electrical equipment.
long gone are the days when only engineers that worked with large electric motors and high power electric loads need worry about power factor.
standards are an integral part of product design and development, and are clearly important in medical applications.
