Figure 1. Using a high-side current monitor (U2) to generate a proportional feedback voltage, this synchronous boost converter (U1) shifts automatically between its high-power and low-power modes of ...

Traditional synchronous boost converters offer little to no protection against short-circuit events at the output. Due to the boost converter’s topology, when the output is shorted to ground, a direct ...

Texas Instruments rolled out a new buck-boost converter with advanced power management that it said can boost the battery life of industrial and consumer Internet of Things devices by over 50%.

A series of 150- and 200-V HEXFET power MOSFETs increases efficiency by up to 1% in 48-V input isolated dc-dc converters. The MOSFETs provide optimized device on-resistance and gate charge ...

A high-efficiency buck-boost DC-DC converter was developed by the research team headed by Prof. CHENG Lin from the School of Microelectronics at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC ...

The combination of the Renesas two-phase synchronous GaN boost controller with ultra-efficient eGaN ® FETs from EPC (Efficient Power Conversion) enables high power density and low-cost DC-DC ...

EVs are transitioning toward high-voltage (HV) standards, which have made energy management requirements more complex. The dc ...

A chip designed to convert high voltages into lower levels in electronics — a process known as DC-DC step-down conversion — more efficiently using a piezoelectric resonator. In an effort to meet the ...
