Power supply circuits come in the form of voltage step-up (boost) or the more common step-down (buck) DC/DC converter. Many of today’s applications require multiple voltage rails to drive a variety of ...

The widespread usage of powerful energy accumulators (batteries and supercapacitors) is leading to improvements in current management. A bidirectional DC/DC converter can prolong the battery’s life ...

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 ...

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 ...

In many applications, voltages require upward and downward conversion. One example would be if an input voltage range of 6 to 24 V is available, and 12 V would be generated from it. Classical ...
