“Power Boost” mode can be helpful in a pinch, but it’s only safe for certain appliances and devices. Here are best practices ...

Any boost-converter design will have a practical limit to how much it can step up a voltage from input to output. Pulse-width modulation (PWM) controllers have timing limits that restrict the minimum ...

In many applications, voltages require upward and downward conversion. One example would be if an input voltage range of 6 to 24 V is available, and 12 V would be generated from it. Classical ...

A buck-boost DC/DC converter is one of the most valuable tools in a power supply designer’s toolbox for dealing with a variety of power conversion scenarios. In these situations, input voltages can ...

Advanced Linear Devices Inc. has released a new family of MicroPower Step-up Low-Voltage Booster Modules. Advanced Linear Devices Inc. announces the release of a new family of MicroPower Step-up ...

Slow charging speed is a major buzzkill for electric vehicles. But what if we told you a big, heavy, expensive piece of electronics was partly to blame for slowing your EV's charging rate, and that a ...
