Buck switching-power converters are the most common method used to efficiently step down positive input voltages. Some applications require an additional low power negative output voltage. Often, for ...

The age of creative thinking in dc/dc converters is not over. So-called “new” topologies may appear periodically, but if they are not resonant types, almost invariably they are just variations of the ...

Many systems require a low-power supply in addition to the main supply. A typical example is when an analog front-end amplifier needs ±5 V, while the main digital circuitry requires +5 V only. For ...

When a switching regulator generates the main output voltage, additional regulated outputs may be added using various configurations of coupled inductor or charge-pump circuits. Frequently, the lowest ...

The use of a Standby Voltage on computer power supplies became widespread when the ATX specification was published in 1995. It enables a computer to be put into a low power consumption mode without ...

This article outlines how to measure, control, and stabilize the relative distance of two interferometer paths to sub-wavelength precision over numerous wavelengths, using the Zurich Instruments MFLI ...
