A common challenge faced by every power-supply designer is the ability to achieve high-efficiency targets with lower-output-voltage step-down converters. For example, a 3.3-V output-voltage power ...

Many systems operating from a small-capacity battery require a high-efficiency switching DC/DC converter to lengthen the operating lifetime between battery recharges. However, many of these systems ...

The LTC3623 is a high efficiency, monolithic synchronous step-down regulator capable of sourcing or sinking up to 5A of continuous output current from an input voltage range of 4V to 15V. Its compact ...

RECOM has announced two new cost-efficient DC-DCs for the rail market with an ultra-wide 11:1 input range to cover all nominal input voltages from 24V to 110VDC, with 24V output and a 12V and 15V ...

One famous limit of thermodynamics is that heat engines, like steam engines and internal combustion engines, must be less efficient than a Carnot heat engine (a heat engine cycle designed by French ...

Some applications require a positive voltage to be generated from a negative input voltage. This can be done either by using a transformer based topology, such as a flyback converter, or with a ...
