Lower operating voltages, increased current requirements, and the dynamic characteristics of formerly well-behaved µP loads place new demands on power distribution and management. To meet these ...

The current-doubler rectifier is a popular alternative for the output stage of a buck-derived power converter, which would otherwise use a conventional center-tapped transformer with secondary-side, ...

The most basic diagrams depicting non-isolated DC-DC converters generally show two ideal switches and an energy storage inductor. In early designs, it was quickly realized that one switch could be ...

For the buck-type switch-mode regulators often used in portable equipment, the synchronous rectifier's control circuit has a strong influence on light-load efficiency and noise performance. The key ...

STMicroelectronics has introduced a new family of ultra‑compact synchronous‑rectifier controllers designed to improve efficiency and reduce component count in flyback power converter designs. The ...

After discussing the three transistor high-side buck p-mosfet driver (a recognised circuit and not mine) with some of EW’s sage commenters, I wondered once again if I could design something similar ...

GENEVA, SWITZERLAND, January 15, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — STMicroelectronics’ SRK1004 synchronous-rectifier controllers save space and increase efficiency in the ...

Linear Technology has launched a new 65V synchronous buck converter designed to deliver up to 500mA of continuous output current from a 16lead thermally enhanced 3 x 5mm DFN or MSOP package. The ...

International Rectifier has introduced the IR3623, a high performance dual synchronous buck PWM control IC. Designed to be used with iP2003A iPOWIR integrated driver-Mosfet power building blocks, the ...
