Linear Technology announces the LT3682, a 1A, 36V input step-down switching regulator with input transient protection up to 60V. Its Burst Mode operation keeps quiescent current under 75uA in no load ...

Ericsson POL regulators are implemented by using non-isolated synchronous buck topology shown in Figure 1. During normal operation of a buck power stage, QH and QL are alternatively switched on and ...

For the PDF version of this article, click here. When designing converters, it is often desirable to measure the dc current coming into the converter. This is particularly true when batteries are ...

The power transistor must be chosen to provide fast response while also withstanding high power dissipation. Several electrical and thermal characteristics must be considered: 1. An array of N current ...
