This article series is in the Power Management topic within our Series Library and the Power Supply Design topic within our TechXchange Library Members can download this three-part mini tutorial ...

The June 30 educational event from Machine Design, in conjunction with Electronic Design, will feature essential DC-DC power-supply design content. Power supplies and power-management systems are ...

When reaching for a power supply design it’s normal here in 2022 to reach for a switching design. They’re lightweight, very efficient, and often available off-the-shelf at reasonable prices.

Two terms that need be defined first are peak power and continuous power. Peak power is the maximum instantaneous audio power. It will determine how much power to design for the supply to physically ...

Intel's new design guidelines require manufacturers to increase their power supply efficiency from less than 50 percent to 60 percent, when the supply units are dealing with a light, 20 percent load.

LLC resonant converters represent a significant advance in power electronics, offering a compelling combination of high efficiency, power density and reduced electromagnetic interference, owing ...

Intel’s ATX 3.0 Power Supply Design Guide isn’t the company dictating to power supply companies what to make; they’re recommended guidelines put together with input from other companies with ...

The TDDCDC-TPH-IN-BI-LLC-300W-RD design uses TP65H150G4PS 150 mOhm SuperGaN® FETs in a robust TO-220 package to power a high performing, high efficiency energy harvesting and distribution battery ...

But it’s also rated for more powah: The 28-pin connection is rated for up to 900 watts, presumably delivered by multiple rear-mounted power supply cables. Multiple competing standards are always ...

Switch-Mode Power Supplies to the Rescue To avoid the disadvantages of a power supply as shown in Figure 2, switch-mode power supplies (SMPS) were invented. They don’t rely on 50- or 60-Hz ac ...
