Dc/dc converters have evolved from simple three-terminal regulator circuits into complex electronic subassemblies that are critical in the power distribution systems of many applications. Good ...

Among the abundance of components making up electronic circuits, very few are as important as capacitors. These components, taking the form of conductive plates separated by an insulating material ...

Capacitors are classified according to their dielectric’s type. Electrolytic capacitors are popular in power electronic circuits, due to their high volumetric efficiency and excellent price ...

Lightweight, small-size, and high-power-density power converter systems, which use only switches and capacitors in their power stage, have no need for transformers or inductors in their design. This ...

I remember debugging a compact PLC power board used in a packaging line. The system worked perfectly on the bench. In the field, it started rebooting every few hours. No obvious faults. No overheating ...
