Abstract: A power semiconductor system includes: a power stage module having one or more power transistor dies attached to or embedded in a first printed circuit board; and an inductor module attached to the power stage module and having an inductor electrically connected to an output node of the power stage module. The inductor includes windings patterned into a second printed circuit board of the inductor module.

Abstract: Circular saws having a blade that moves relative to a stationary base structure during operative use of the circular saws to cut a workpiece and methods of detecting a kickback condition of such circular saws. The circular saws include a base structure, a user-actuated assembly, an attachment structure, and a controller. The attachment structure is configured to permit constrained relative motion between the base structure and the user-actuated assembly in a motion direction and during operative use of the circular saw to cut the workpiece. A motion sensor is configured to generate a motion signal indicative of motion of the user-actuated assembly along the motion direction. The controller is programmed to initiate a kickback response of the circular saw responsive to the motion signal being indicative of a kickback condition of the circular saw.

Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for the cable supply of a movable consumer, in particular in vertical applications, such as for example a drilling rig or the like. A main energy guide chain (10) guides at least one cable between a first connection point (6) and a second connection point (7) that is movable relative thereto, wherein said second connection point is moved between a first end position (4) and a second end position (5) of the consumer. According to the invention, a displaceable carriage (20) with an additional auxiliary energy guide chain (14) is provided for guiding the at least one cable between a third connection point (8) on the displaceable carriage and a stationary fourth connection point (9). This allows a retraction of the main energy guide chain (10) between an operating position and a parking position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a line guiding system (1) for accommodating and guiding supply lines between two connection points (2.1, 2.2) that can be moved relative to one another in a circular motion with respect to a rotational axis (d) over a rotational angle range, wherein the line guiding system (1) has an elongated strand (3.1, 3.2, 3.3) coupled to the connection points (2.1, 2.2), on or in which strand the supply lines can be arranged in a guided manner, and the strand (3.1, 3.2, 3.3) can be moved back and forth within the rotational angle range while guided over a circular arc, such as to form a first run (4.1), a second run (4.2), and a deflecting bend (5) that connects the first run (4.1) and the second run (4.2). In order to enable guidance of the supply lines over an increased rotational angle range, at least two strands, a first strand (3.1) and a second strand (3.2), are provided, which are arranged such as to be coupled one behind the other.
