Today's telecom and data communication networks require efficient, high-density dc-dc solutions for converting the -48Vdc bus to low-voltage, high-current outputs. Output voltages range from 1.5Vdc to ...

Switch-mode regulators include the buck (step-down) and the boost (step-up), forward and flyback topologies, as well as the SEPIC, hysteretic and multiphase converters. Two basic IC topologies are ...

Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is a basic concept that is employed in many areas of electronics. PWM is a simple averaging method that is used in everything from microwave power percentages to LED ...

Modern power delivery systems with DSPs, FPGAs and CPUs run on lower supply voltages and consume higher current. In fact, sub-1 V voltages are everywhere now. Meanwhile, intermediate bus voltages have ...
