Overvoltage protective devices are key to an effective overvoltage protection strategy, but only if correctly selected and installed.

Microprocessors and application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) require low-voltage, high-current power supplies. These supplies usually have very strict requirements on output-voltage deviations ...

This article is dedicated to Jim Williams who several years ago (2006) wrote an article in EDN regarding the need of a good lab apparatus to qualify the behavior of voltage regulators for compliance ...

For the PDF version of this article, click here. Many electronic circuits can rapidly shift between a sleep state and full load operation, placing a heavy requirement on the power converter to ...

Point of Load (PoL) dc-dc converter modules provide regulated dc power to a wide variety of loads. PoLs are small, efficient and relatively inexpensive, so their ability to provide common powering ...
