Point of Load (PoL) dc-dc converter modules provide regulated dc power to a wide variety of loads. PoLs are small, efficient and relatively inexpensive, so their ability to provide common powering ...

The switching speed of a power MOSFET charge-controlled device depends on the speed with which an associated gate driver circuit can charge its input capacitance. For the last 20 years, many excellent ...

Typically, for isolated DC-DC power supply applications with high-output current, the use of synchronous rectifiers (particularly MOSFETs) is dominant. A high-output current also introduces a high ...

Second-stage output filters are often used to attenuate the output voltage ripple of a switching power supply. They can also isolate one load circuit from another. In this power tip, I will describe ...
