If you are planning on creating some sort of Nixie tube display, you will undoubtedly need to find yourself a high voltage DC power supply. If you don’t want to add a transformer to your project, you ...

The buck-boost dc-dc switching converter (one that provides a constant output voltage regardless of whether the unregulated input voltage is greater than or less than Vout) presents a greater design ...

This is a simple solar boost converter and voltage limiter circuit that charges a 12V battery from a 6V solar panel. It also demonstrates MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) capability. When we think ...

DC to DC conversion has come a long way. What was once took an electromechanical vibrator and transformer has been reduced to a PC board the size of a largish postage stamp that can be had for a ...

We can often find useful or interesting things in old items. Some items can become invaluable under the right circumstances! In this post, I am talking about an older adjustable step-up dc power ...

Asynchronous vs. synchronous topologies. How a synchronous boost LED controller minimizes efficiency losses. The challenge of low-input-voltage operation. High-power LEDs continue to proliferate in ...

DALLAS, Sept. 30, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Texas Instruments (TI) (Nasdaq: TXN) today introduced a family of four high-efficiency, low-quiescent-current (IQ) buck-boost converters that feature tiny ...

Diodes has introduced a boost converter that can supply constant voltage or constant current to drive backlights, with a dimming ratio of 100:1. Called AL3353, it has an input voltage of 9V to 40V – ...

Buck-Boost DC-DC Converters are versatile power electronic devices that facilitate the conversion of a direct current (DC) input to a DC output that may be either higher or lower than the supply ...

A high-efficiency buck-boost DC-DC converter was developed by the research team headed by Prof. CHENG Lin from the School of Microelectronics at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC ...

Maxim Integrated has introduced the Max77827, a buck-boost converter featuring a quiescent current (IQ) of 6µA and peak efficiency of 96%. It addresses the power requirements of low-power wide-area ...
