This application note talks about the design of a simple DC-DC converter. Buck converter works similarly to a step down transformer. Buck converter steps down the voltage input into a lower voltage ...

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 ...

Buck converters, a pivotal class of DC–DC converters, are widely implemented in modern power electronics to achieve efficient voltage step-down conversion. Recent advancements focus on enhancing ...

As electronics become more advanced, the need for efficient power management increases. One crucial element of power management is the DC-DC converter, which is a device that converts DC voltage from ...

Why we should use a multiphase buck converter. How to use buck converters in parallel to increase the output current/power. How to derive the small-signal transfer function of a multiphase buck ...

Diodes has announced four automotive buck converters for 48V rail point-of-load use. The parts are similar, but rated at 5 to 100V or 5 to 80Vin, and 2.5A or 3.5A out. There are not synchronous ...

Another lifetime ago, and as a young engineer, I had to design a power conversion system. The input power came as raw electrical energy from a jet engine during flight. The output power was input to ...

Designing a circuit is a lot easier on paper, where components have well-defined values, or lacking that, at least well-defined tolerances. Unfortunately, even keeping percentage tolerances in mind ...

A way to stop frequency fluctuation in buck converters has been found by a research team of scientists from Golestan University in Iran, US Concordia University, and Delft University of Technology in ...

Premier Magnetics has introduced a line of transformers specifically designed to complement the Texas Instruments LM5017 family of Fly-Buck™ converters. The Premier Magnetics Fly-Buck transformers' ...
