The transistor and the PWM-switch, the core circuit of power converters, have interesting analogs. Both have three terminals, hence three configurations. They are active devices, and each has a key ...

The power stage of switching converters can be modeled essentially as a PWM-switch. A switch seems to be far from the kind of circuit element that can be linearized, but it can be. This Part 2 ...

Texas Instruments’ four new pulse-width modulation (PWM) controllers significantly simplify implementation of active clamp/reset topologies for high-efficiency Texas Instruments’ four new pulse-width ...

The LT3952 is a current mode step-up DC/DC converter with an internal 60V, 4A DMOS power switch. It is specifically designed to drive high power LEDs in multiple configurations. It combines input and ...

Webasto has been granted a patent for a method to check semiconductor switch faults. By evaluating current measurements or voltage pulses based on duty cycle, faults like short circuits or open ...
