These days switching power supplies are nearly ubiquitous and used throughout every electronic devices. They are valued for their small size, low cost, and efficiency. However, they have the major ...

Linear Technology’s isolated μModule converters are compact solutions for breaking ground loops. These converters employ a flyback architecture whose maximum output current varies with input voltage ...

A way to apply the output of certain sensors to a TTL/CMOS-level iput on a microcontroller. Sensor must have an NPN output stage that can support a pullup to its power rail. With just a few components ...

If these signals exhibit a simple, periodic waveform, such as with sine, square, or triangular waves, the generators are called function generators. They are often used to check the function of ...

A common challenge faced by every power-supply designer is the ability to achieve high-efficiency targets with lower-output-voltage step-down converters. For example, a 3.3-V output-voltage power ...
