The flyback design is a switched-mode power supply (SMPS) that’s been used for 70+ years and still going strong. This supply—also called a power converter—has two distinct operating phases, with power ...

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 ...

Ideally switch-mode power supplies would behave like mathematical models. But since they don’t you need to perform thorough characterization and troubleshooting. Fortunately, modern oscilloscopes are ...

MP110 is a monolithic regulator with programmable pulse width modulation (PWM) controller, 900V power MOSFET and high voltage current source in one chip. MP110 can be configured as Buck converter. Due ...

“They don’t build ’em like they used to.” There’s plenty of truth to that old saw, especially when a switch-mode power supply from the 1940s still works with its original parts. But when said power ...

Bill Traue, CSRE, 8-VSB, AMD is principal of Bill Traue Technical Services. He acknowledges that when it comes to fixing dead switched-mode power supplies, the small wall-wart or line-lump type aren’t ...

This online engineering specialization is ideal for learners and engineers seeking to advance their skills in the analysis, modeling, and design of high-performance control loops around switched-mode ...

Toshiba is expanding its DTMOSVI series lineup – for switched-mode power supplies for industrial equipment – with DTMOSVI 600V HSD (High-Speed Diode) N-channel power MOSFETs. Keep up with developments ...

Toshiba Electronics Europe GmbH has added the DTMOSVI 600V HSD (High-Speed Diode) N-channel power MOSFETs to the DTMOSVI 600V Series, featuring a super junction structure. The seven new products are ...
