This peak voltage is generally considerably higher than the average voltage of the secondary of the transformer.

An important property of film capacitors is their ability to withstand high peak voltage or peak current surge pulses.

If separate amplifiers are used, each must handle the square of the peak voltage in its own band.

To address this, uprated versions with higher peak voltage and power ratings were introduced.

These act as very high speed switches, momentarily limiting the peak voltage across their terminals.

In this case the peak voltage of the battery drops more quickly than normal as it is used, even though the total energy remains almost the same.

These organs can generate a peak voltage of about 14 to 37 volts, which they use to stun prey and to defend themselves.

The peak voltage is set by the breakdown voltage of the insulator.

The calculated peak voltage is often reduced by a safety factor.

This is the ratio of peak voltage across the inductor to peak current through the inductor.
