The buck converter has emerged as a critical element in modern power electronics, offering highly efficient voltage step‐down conversion for a wide array of applications. Recent advances have focused ...

Power architects engaged in designing systems requiring low output noise and fast transient response — such as RF transmitters, power amplifiers, test systems, displays, designs supporting low-voltage ...

The multichannel, interleaved QSW VRM uses a novel current sensing and sharing technique to improve transient response and minimize supply size. Advances in microprocessor technologies will impose ...

Second-stage output filters are often used to attenuate the output voltage ripple of a switching power supply. They can also isolate one load circuit from another. In this power tip, I will describe ...

It’s normal to assume that there’s an easy way to relate the bandwidth of a power-supply control loop to its transient response—no good reference exists that defines this in simple terms. It seems ...
