Traditional multilevel converters (MLCs) give devices the high performance and efficiency required to keep up with advancing technology, but their complex systems and high number of required power ...

A SPICE model featuring auto-toggling capabilities can do a better job at assessing and testing the choices you have made for power supply compensation, and it requires a minimum of engineering ...

Boost power supplies are popular for creating higher dc voltages from low-voltage inputs. As the power demands from these supplies increase, however, a single power stage may be insufficient. This ...

Average-value models are commonly used in the design and analysis of power electronic-based systems as a method of portraying the overall system dynamics while neglecting discontinuities that arise ...

Editor’s Note: The author describes the design of a low power, high speed differential to single-ended converter circuit that uses a novel feedback technique to achieve high bandwidth without ...

A phase converter provides three-phase power from a single-phase source. Old-style mechanical converters use a hybrid motor/generator, while electronic converters use capacitors and other devices to ...

In a power-supply topology for a computer system with a 12-V input and a 1-V, 20-A output, currents are high enough that duplicate power stages can be used to reduce stress and spread the thermal ...
