Synchronous buck converters, as opposed to conventional buck converters, can achieve high efficiency in today's low-voltage, high-current applications because they replace the catch diode of buck ...

Lower operating voltages, increased current requirements, and the dynamic characteristics of formerly well-behaved µP loads place new demands on power distribution and management. To meet these ...

Texas Instruments’ TPS53915 (Fig. 1), can supply up to 12 A output that is adjustable from 0.6 V to 5.5 V. Its input voltage ranges from 1.5 V to 18 V. A 4.5 V to 25 V VDD input powers an internal 5 V ...

The synchronous buck converter is a widely used topology in low-voltage, high-current applications. One common application is a point-of-load (POL) converter that transforms a system bus voltage of 48 ...

(V3 is the input and V1, the IC power supply, would need to be made from the voltage across C4 – scroll down to see just the Cuk part) And a mini-obsession over the last few years has been trying to ...

Linear Technology announces the LTC3520, a dual channel, 2MHz synchronous converter. One channel utilizes a synchronous buck-boost topology which can deliver up to 1A of continuous output current with ...

PLANO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Diodes Incorporated (Diodes) (Nasdaq: DIOD) has announced a further addition to its family of automotive-compliant DC-DC converters. The DIODES™AP64060Q is a 600mA ...

The system electrothermal transient co-design modeling and silicon validation effort that led to the industry’s first highly efficient, highest power density (40A) synchronous step-down converter.

Linear Technology has launched a new 65V synchronous buck converter designed to deliver up to 500mA of continuous output current from a 16lead thermally enhanced 3 x 5mm DFN or MSOP package. The ...
