Selection of a suitable output capacitor plays an important role in switching-converter designs. “Some 99% of the ‘design’ problems associated with linear and switching regulators can be traced ...

Power supply designers should be aware that all switchmode supplies are made up of buck or boost regulators (or combinations of buck/boost regulators) with or without dc transformers. An excellent ...

microcontroller into a (more or less) smooth DC voltage. In principle, a typical microcontroller can supply an average voltage range of 0 to 5 V via its PWM pins. But we need to convert the ...

When choosing a capacitor for any application, there are a few key characteristics that must be understood in order to analyze its suitability for the circuit. In a simple capacitor equivalent circuit ...
