Abstract: Conventional burst-mode control for an LLC resonant converter improves the light load efficiency, but it suffers from dynamic problems such as output voltage dip during load transients due ...

A new approach to designing a synchronous rectifier will help engineers unlock efficiency gains that extend beyond ...

Although in general I strive to cover a diversity of topics here in the blog, regular readers may have noticed that some amount of chronological theme-grouping still goes on. A few years back, for ...

Abstract: An advanced symmetrical voltage quadrupler rectifier (SVQR) is derived in this paper to serve as the secondary rectification topology, which helps to extend the converter voltage gain and ...

The current-doubler rectifier is a popular alternative for the output stage of a buck-derived power converter, which would otherwise use a conventional center-tapped transformer with secondary-side, ...

Reflecting on a vehicle explosion that occurred at the Canada-US border just before Thanksgiving, global fellow Alan Bersin writes on the response by Canadian and US authorities and the lessons to be ...

Aiming to handle the inherent double-line frequency ripple power in single-phase power systems, a lot of active power decoupling (APD) topologies have been developed. In this paper, a general method ...

Got a motor down? No matter how urgent the problem — and motor failure can cause some very urgent problems — always develop a plan of attack before you start repair work. Gather up any background ...

With the rapid development of the world’s aerospace technologies, a high-power and high-reliability space high-voltage power supply is significantly required by new generation of applications, ...
