Power supply design has traditionally placed a high priority on energy efficiency. The system and the end user will pay more if the power supply is inefficient and has non-negligible power losses. Let ...

Both switching and linear regulators in power supplies carry out the identical task of producing a regulated output voltage from an uncontrolled input voltage. However, they carry out this duty using ...

Allegro MicroSystems, LLC announces the release of three new switch mode power supplies. Three switch mode power supplies from Allegro MicroSystems, LLC, the C, HWB and SWF series, have been designed ...

Learn more about integrating GaN power FETs into switch-mode power supplies and what you must change when upgrading from silicon MOSFETs. The power-handling properties of GaN. The unique challenges of ...

Perhaps the simplest way to regulate a DC voltage is using a voltage divider and/or an active device like a Zener diode. Besides simplicity, they have the additional advantage of not being ...

Toshiba Launches 100V N-Channel Power MOSFET with Its Latest Generation Process Technology[1] to Improve Efficiency in Switched-Mode Power Supplies for Industrial Equipment Toshiba Electronic Devices ...

After we last saw [David Lovett] of [Usagi Electric], he was knee-deep in trying to fix a DEC PDP-11/03 power supply, which fortunately led to a fixed PSU and a very happy PDP-11/23 system installed ...
