H-bridge buck-boost ICs are widely used in applications requiring a constant voltage or current source even when the system ...

A ripple-generating circuit is usually needed to ensure stability of constant-on-time (COT) controlled buck converters. Different values of the ripple generating circuit can have direct impacts on ...

In the last installment of Circuit VR, we walked around a simplified buck converter. The main simplification was using a constant PWM signal. The result is that the output voltage is a fixed fraction ...

The AP61406Q has high-side and low-side current sense protection during output short circuits, increasing its reliability in automotive POL applications. Other protection features include UVLO, VIN ...

A new 5.5V, 4A synchronous buck converter with an I²C interface is pushing automotive point-of-load designs toward higher efficiency, tighter control, and smaller footprints.

Buck-boost converters are a form of switching-mode power supply that can supply a regulated DC output from a source voltage either above or below the desired output voltage. This can be particularly ...

In this article, we discuss the basic operation and design of a Fly-Buck™ converter. This discussion also includes a detailed explanation about the control and regulation of this converter. The ...

Diodes Incorporated (Diodes) (Nasdaq: DIOD) today introduces the AP61406Q, a new 5.5V, 4A member with I2C interface of its low quiescent current (IQ), automotive-compliant* synchronous buck converters ...
