The most common type of power supply today is the switching supply. These units use pulse-width modulation (PWM) to regulate output. Supplies today employ several different PWM circuit configurations.

MOSFET selection for DC-to-DC switching controllers can be a complicated process. It is not sufficient to merely look at the voltage and current ratings for a MOSFET. A balance between low gate charge ...

Switched-mode power supplies are found in electronics all around us. They provide the DC voltages that power our computers, cell phones, chargers, appliances, and myriad other electronic devices.

This document presents switching power supplies in focus. It tackles about the types, uses, functions and advantages of switching power supplies compared to the other ones. It also discusses some ...

The design of a switching power supply has always been considered a blend of magic and art by every engineer that designs one for the first time. Fortunately, today the market offers different tools ...

Today, 80% of all input/output (I/O) devices in automation applications are supplied with 24VDC power. The second most popular voltage is 120VAC, which is used on 15% of all I/Os. Over the past decade ...
