Many of today's MP3 players, multimedia players, digital video recorders, and other portable electronic devices have found the micro hard disk drive to be the optimum device for memory storage ...

The widely varying voltage of the 12V automotive board net can present a challenge for automotive electronic application design engineers. With DC voltages ranging from 3.5 to 28V (and for transients ...

Increasingly, many industrial PCs (IPCs), USB power delivery (PD), and automotive digital video recorders (DVRs) require wide V IN DC/DC converters to cope with a wide range of battery voltage ...

The design equations developed for the buck converter in Chapter 3 are a subset of a general set of equations that are applicable to a great variety of DC-DC converters. These types of converters are ...

We all know that the reason the electrical system uses alternating current is because it’s easy to step the voltage up and down using a transformer, a feature which just isn’t possible with a DC ...

A synchronous buck-boost converter IC from Linear Technology builds on the success of the company’s LTC3440 by extending that device’s input voltage range and by making burst-mode operation ...

DC to DC conversion has come a long way. What was once took an electromechanical vibrator and transformer has been reduced to a PC board the size of a largish postage stamp that can be had for a ...

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 ...

DC-DC converter chips provide a regulated DC voltage output from a different, unregulated input voltage. They are used in power management applications and incorporate several conversion technologies.
