You can make all sorts of different types of inductors, but the most common type is cylindrical coil of wire---a solenoid. When current runs through the first loop, it creates a magnetic field that ...
Figure 1 provides a plot of this expression; it is a circle with a maximum of 0.5, at 50% duty factor and two zero crossings at zero and 100% duty factor. The curve is symmetric around 50%. Between 20 ...
The first major performance item to review is large-signal load-transient response performance. Here, a large-signal phrase is used in contrast to a small-signal. A small-signal transient literally ...
Some 99 percent of the “design” problems associated with linear and switching regulators can be traced directly to the improper use of capacitors: wrong type, wrong value, or incorrect physical ...
