A buck-boost DC/DC converter is one of the most valuable tools in a power supply designer’s toolbox for dealing with a variety of power conversion scenarios. In these situations, input voltages can ...

In the expanding world of portable electronic devices, there is no one single parameter more important than battery life, or more important than efficient power conditioning, which is why switching ...

A SPICE model featuring auto-toggling capabilities can do a better job at assessing and testing the choices you have made for power supply compensation, and it requires a minimum of engineering ...

What are the spec needs for for a USB power-sourcing programmable power supply (PPS)? What comprises a high-efficiency USB-C buck converter solution. The key factors behind a USB-C buck-boost ...

A battery alone may not be capable of supplying complex systems with all the voltage rails necessary to function properly. Applications such as automotive LED drivers, audio amplifiers, and ...

Switching power supplies are familiar to Hackaday readers, whether they have a fairly conventional transformer, are a buck, a boost, or a flyback design. There’s nearly always an inductor involved, ...

[SM6VFZ] designed, built and tested a switched-mode DC-DC boost regulator using the core independent peripherals (CIP) of an ATtiny214 micro-controller as a proof of concept, and it looks pretty ...

A high-efficiency buck-boost DC-DC converter was developed by the research team headed by Prof. CHENG Lin from the School of Microelectronics at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC ...

It is common for Internet of Things (IoT) devices, industrial sensors, meters, precision, and medical equipment to require both a positive and negative voltage. Often, these voltages must be ...
