In the last installment of Circuit VR, we walked around a simplified buck converter. The main simplification was using a constant PWM signal. The result is that the output voltage is a fixed ...

In this installment of Circuit VR, we’ll look at a simple buck converter — that is a switching regulator that takes a higher voltage and produces a lower voltage. The first one won’t ...

ST has brought out a 1A buck converter for low-voltage loads in smart meters, home appliances and industrial converters ST has brought out a 1A buck converter for low-voltage loads in smart meters, ...

Functions ranging from parking assistance to full autonomous driving require multicore processors powered by buck converters ...

Subsequently we discuss Alphacore’s design of a radiation-hardened dc-dc converter at the heart of a space power management and distribution system. Able to properly function at up to 200 Mrad of TID, ...
