breakdown field strength is reduced. Derating curves are included in data sheets for such capacitors. Derating can also provide a safety margin for transient...

method for derating based upon the type of protector. For earmuffs, the NRR should be derated by 25%, for slow-recovery foam earplugs the derating is 50%...

cooling capacity has to be derated compared to that of sea level. A rule-of-thumb formula to note: 1 – (h/17500) = derating factor. Where h is the height...

In electronics and electrical engineering, a fuse is an electrical safety device that operates to provide overcurrent protection of an electrical ciruit...

controller delivers a percentage closer to 100% of the maximum input available. Derating of mains-powered phase-fired controllers is important as they are often...

for example, in highly inductive circuits, should be used with a voltage derating. If possible, the voltage profile should be a ramp turn-on, as this reduces...

recognition for fine-pitch components. There are many techniques of derating. Global derating considers system-wide stops, slow-downs and set ups as well as...

and thermal and electrical parameters for safe operating area (e.g., derating according to thermal resistance when repeatedly switching large currents)...

does not require the same derating that a solid tantalum does and its failure mechanism is open. A 10% to 20% voltage derating curve is recommended for...

are more stable against oxygen diffusion that results in lower voltage derating rules compared with passivated niobium or tantalum anodes. Electrolytic...
