High-speed converters and power modules pose tough challenges to designers. Switching losses shall be reduced as much as possible, meanwhile, high dI/dt and fast dV/dt switching shall be properly ...
Power supply design has traditionally placed a high priority on energy efficiency. The system and the end user will pay more if the power supply is inefficient and has non-negligible power losses. Let ...
GaN switches promise higher efficiency and higher power density in SMPS. This article discusses the readiness of this technology and its challenges, and provides an outlook on being a replacement for ...
An industry expert addresses the debate of discrete components vs. external boxed filters for suppressing noise. The analysis and suppression of electro-magnetic interference (EMI) generated from high ...
Bill Traue, CSRE, 8-VSB, AMD is principal of Bill Traue Technical Services. He acknowledges that when it comes to fixing dead switched-mode power supplies, the small wall-wart or line-lump type aren’t ...
Automotive incandescent bulbs have largely given way to more efficient, reliable, stylish, and even safer light emitting diodes (LEDs). LEDs turn on in a fraction of the time and are especially useful ...
When first starting an electronics project, it’s not uncommon to dive right in to getting the core parts of the project working. Breadboarding the project usually involves working with a benchtop ...
“They don’t build ’em like they used to.” There’s plenty of truth to that old saw, especially when a switch-mode power supply from the 1940s still works with its original parts. But when said power ...
