Transformer-derived topologies such as the flyback allow power supplies to easily create multiple output voltages by adding secondary windings to the transformer. This creates a situation where you ...

Before you can design an adjustable voltage regulator into your circuit, or do a redesign, you need to calculate the values for two resistors. This is not difficult in itself, but actually finding the ...

A hybrid DC-DC converter topology boosts efficiency by combining a buck regulator and a charge pump. Is it the future of intermediate bus conversion?
