Switch-mode ICs play a dominant role in optimizing the efficiency and minimizing the size of power conversion subsystems used in consumer, computer, and industrial equipment. A switch-mode converter ...

The design trade-offs that must be addressed during the design of a DC-DC converter circuit are simplified by integrating the inductor into the power management device. This article focuses on the ...

This course introduces more advanced concepts of switched-mode converter circuits. Realization of the power semiconductors in inverters or in converters having bidirectional power flow is explained.

For as versatile and inexpensive as switch-mode power supplies are at all kinds of different tasks, they’re not always the ideal choice for every DC-DC circuit. Although they can do almost any job in ...

Editor’s note: Haifeng Fan is our guest blogger from TI for this blog on the first day of exhibits at APEC 201 A DC/DC converter converts an input voltage source to a desired voltage level. When the ...

On paper, electricity behaves in easy-to-understand, predictable ways. That’s mostly because the wires on the page have zero resistance and the switching times are actually zero, whereas in real life ...
