ATX power-supply designers tend to favor single-switch forward-converter topologies because they are simple and can power multiple, isolated outputs. However, the drawback of these approaches is that ...

To best understand a design topology and make decisions on clock/register gating, vector sets are required for the RTL tools to understand how to gate clocks and ...

For the PDF version of this article, click here. The leakage inductance of the power transformer of an isolated dc-dc converter may significantly affect its efficiency and cost. Using lossless ...

For hard-switched power topologies, Infineon is planning a 100V GaN transistors with a integrated Schottky diode. “Due to the lack of body diode in hard-switching applications, GaN-based topologies ...

Topological materials move electrons along their surface and edges without any loss, making them promising materials for dissipationless, high-efficiency electronics. Researchers are especially ...

A few months ago, I wrote a Signal Chain Basics article titled “3 considerations when selecting an op amp.” While that article is very useful for selecting operational amplifiers (op amps) for new ...
