All buck converters need capacitors on the input. Actually, in a perfect world, if the supply had zero output impedance and infinite current capacity and the tracks had zero resistance or inductance, ...

Synchronous buck converters have received great attention in low power, low voltage DC-DC converter applications in recent years due to their high efficiency. International Rectifier Inc. has ...

Though stepdown converters (buck converters) are extremely popular, the rules of thumb and calculations thatspeed their design can be hard to find.

So why roll your own buck-boost converter for the ground up? Maybe because sometimes the best way to learn is by doing. When it comes to clear and succinct explanations, [GreatScott!] has you covered.

Even though buck converters, and other DC converters like boost and the mysterious buck-boost converter, seem like magic even to us, there is some interesting electrical theory going on if you ...

ST has brought out a 1A buck converter for low-voltage loads in smart meters, home appliances and industrial converters The’ DCP3601 miniature monolithic buck converter is claimed to have over 90% ...

Fairchild Semiconductor has introduced a synchronous buck converter chip set designed specifically to optimize efficiency and space in notebooks.

Halo Microelectronics is aiming at portable systems with dynamic voltage scaling with a pair of 3A synchronous buck converter that can be programmed on-the-fly over I2C for output voltage and output ...

A buck inductor is nothing more than a wound inductor normally used in switchmode power applications to step a dc voltage source down to a lower level. However, it's just a little ...

ROHM has released a buck-boost DC/DC converter with integrated MOSFET, the BD83070GWL, that combines efficiency with best-in-class current consumption, making it suitable for IoT, wearables, and ...
