DC/DC converters are quite popular among electronic enthusiasts and are widely used within the industry. There are three major types of non-isolated DC/DC converters: buck, boost, and buck-boost. In ...

This is a simple and very useful circuit in our real life which generates the output voltage of 24 V DC while supplying the input voltage of 12 V DC. The circuit, which we have explained below, is ...

DC-to-DC switching converters are widely used in most portable devices. They efficiently generate various regulated supply voltages for different sub-blocks within the same system board. A typical ...

Decoupling and bulk capacitance are used to limit the voltage deviation of dc-dc converters in the face of load steps. Yet, requirements for high power Decoupling and bulk capacitance are used to ...

This course introduces more advanced concepts of switched-mode converter circuits. Realization of the power semiconductors in inverters or in converters having bidirectional power flow is explained.

Fuses protect against overcurrent events by melting their elements and opening the circuit. Fuses must be applied at or below their specified voltage rating, which differs between ac and dc current.
