Synchronous buck converters, as opposed to conventional buck converters, can achieve high efficiency in today's low-voltage, high-current applications because they replace the catch diode of buck ...

The synchronous buck converter is a widely used topology in low-voltage, high-current applications. One common application is a point-of-load (POL) converter that transforms a system bus voltage ...

This reference design presents a synchronous buck converter using the UCC38C43 BiCMOS low-power current-mode PWM controller, the TPS2838 synchronous buck MOSFET driver with drive regulator, and the ...

The synchronous buck converter (b) improves efficiency by substituting a second switch for the diode. (Source: Author) When S1 is opened, the magnetic field collapses, causing a negative kickback ...

PLANO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Diodes Incorporated (Nasdaq: DIOD) has announced two highly integrated synchronous buck converters that simplify circuit design in automotive power systems with its ...

Some of us may have recently stumbled over these mysterious ‘Mini 560’ synchronous buck converter modules at various e-shopping websites. These little modules claim to take in 7-20 VDC and out ...

Diodes has unveiled two highly integrated synchronous buck converters that simplify circuit design in automotive power systems with its Power Good output and EMI mitigation for noise-sensitive ...

Linear Technology has announced the LTC3335, a nanopower high-efficiency synchronous buck-boost converter with an onboard precision coulomb counter. It delivers up to 50mA of continuous output current ...

Simple buck-boost and Cuk converters invert the input voltage. SEPICs (single-ended-primary-inductance converters) and four-switch synchronous H-bridge buck-boost converters do not invert the input ...

Quiescent current is typically 90μA, according to the company. Two resistors are needed to set output voltage, and anywhere up from 0.8V – with buck converter caveats. An inductor is needed, and at ...
