Download this article in PDF format. The groundbreaking PWM-Resonant Ćuk topology could revolutionize the design of non-isolated, step-down dc-dc converters. This new topology provides much ...

A PQ expert can link an abnormal current or voltage waveform to an abnormal condition on a power system just as a handwriting expert matches a signature to a person. Many facilities now have online ...

Switch-mode ICs play a dominant role in optimizing the efficiency and minimizing the size of power conversion subsystems used in consumer, computer, and industrial equipment. A switch-mode converter ...

DPA-Switch greatly simplifies the design compared to a discrete implementation. The capacitor coupled synchronous rectifier drive used in this design is useful for higher voltage outputs, still allowing ...

All buck converters need capacitors on the input. Actually, in a perfect world, if the supply had zero output impedance and infinite current capacity and the tracks had zero resistance or inductance, ...

Here's how to reduce the effect of capacitor switching on your power system Last month's article discussed exactly what happens when electric utilities switch shunt capacitors: power system components ...
