The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Mean Well PSC-160 Security Power Supplies 20.02.2015

Mean Well has expanded its range of power supplies for security systems and low-voltage uninterruptible power systems (UPS) with the PSC-160 series.

The new series of power supplies has an output power of 160 W and has two separate channels for powering the load and charging the battery. The sources are available for two output voltages of 13,8 V (PSC-160A) and 27,6 V (PSC-160B). The voltage on the load channel can be adjusted in the range of 12...15 V/24...29 V, while the battery charge voltage does not change.

The new series of power supplies PSC-160 is available in open frame and in a closed casing. Models with a casing have an additional symbol "C" in the designation, for example PSC-160A-C. Remote control of mains voltage (AC-Ok) and battery status (Bat Low) is carried out using a built-in relay ("dry" contact).

The power supplies are protected against short circuit, overload, overvoltage, deep battery discharge and polarity reversal. The new series of power supplies has power factor correction, is characterized by high efficiency (efficiency up to 90%) and is operable in the input voltage range of 90...264 VAC at an ambient temperature of -20...+70°C under natural convection.

Power supplies of the PSC-160 series are designed for security systems, emergency lighting, alarm systems, access control and low-voltage uninterruptible power systems.

Main technical parameters of PSC-160 series:

- output power: 160 W;
- output voltage: 13,8 V (PSC-160A) and 27.6 V (PSC-160B);
- two separate channels for loading and charging the battery;
- power factor >0,95;
- efficiency up to 90%;
- signaling AC-Ok, Bat Low (relay contacts);
- input voltage range: 90...264 V AC/127...370 V DC;
- working temperature range: -20...+70°С;
- overall dimensions (LxWxH): 152,4x76,2x32 mm / 155,4x85x37 mm (in the casing).
