A new design solution implements analog-digital fusion control for power supplies serving small to medium industrial and consumer equipment operating at 30 W to 1 kW. It provides the same ...

Switch-mode power supplies can use digital current-mode techniques for protection against peak currents, magnetic field "ratcheting," and input-voltage variations. Digital control of switch-mode power ...

While DSPs are the primary controllers in uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) with power-factor correction (PFC), ac generation and battery management, microcontrollers serve secondary functions for ...

The distinction between analog and digital signals is very simple, but it can still be a challenge to wrap one's mind around the concepts that define the two systems. Just when you think you've got it ...

An AC/DC power supply with input power greater than 75 W requires power factor correction (PFC) to: Take the universal AC input (90 V to 264 V) and rectify that input to a DC voltage. Maintain the ...

Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss what’s changing in analog design with the shift toward heterogeneous integration and more safety- and mission-critical applications with Mo Faisal, ...

This is the second in a series of discussions with Mike Glass, owner of Orion Technical Solutions, on ensuring data integrity ...
