STMicroelectronics has introduced a new family of ultra‑compact synchronous‑rectifier controllers designed to improve ...

Leveraging ST’s robust silicon-on-insulator (SOI) process, the SRK1004 can control the MOSFET in either low-side or high-side ...

Fairchild launched its new FAN7688, an advanced LLC resonant controller with Synchronous Rectification (SR) that provides best-in-class efficiency for isolated DC-DC converters. The unique features ...

Lower operating voltages, increased current requirements, and the dynamic characteristics of formerly well-behaved µP loads place new demands on power distribution and management. To meet these ...

This application note is Part 2 of a two-part series on high-voltage synchronous regulators in industrial-automation power-supply design. Part 1 discusses the industrial control architecture and the ...

A wind energy conversion system needs a maximum power point tracking strategy. In the literature, several works have interested in the search for a maximum power point. Generally, their goals are to ...

Geothermal power offers a stable, continuous source of renewable energy that could help power millions of homes while reducing dependence on fossil fuels. As governments worldwide pursue ...

Asynchronous vs. synchronous topologies. How a synchronous boost LED controller minimizes efficiency losses. The challenge of low-input-voltage operation. High-power LEDs continue to proliferate in ...

Maintenance on a wind turbine hub can be exciting, but also somewhat dangerous and a bit exhausting, as all the equipment and tools must be carried up (and down) hundreds of feet. Making pitch ...

STMicroelectronics’ SRK1004 synchronous-rectifier controllers save space and increase efficiency in the secondary side of active-clamp ...
