The bidirectional flyback-based active cell balancing approach offers a compact and scalable solution for modern multicell ...

Abstract: Resonant switched-capacitor circuits are attractive for power integration, but encounter limited voltage regulation range and efficiency. This article proposes a family of quasi-parallel ...

The ongoing electrification of cars brings new trends and requirements with every new design cycle. One trend for battery electric vehicles is reducing the size of the low-voltage batteries, which ...

How GaN is used in DC-DC power converters. Challenges and advantages of using GaN semiconductors. When designers need high-voltage to low-voltage DC-DC converter designs, both the input and output ...

Switching power supplies produce radiated and conducted emissions caused by ringing. Oscilloscope and spectrum-analyzer measurements let you see them. DC-DC converters are ubiquitous in most ...

The D.C. Circuit said the federal government had shown that pepper spray can cause "serious bodily injury" and that the three men used it that way, therefore an enhancement was properly applied to the ...

Abstract: As the power consumption of data center continues to increase, the topology of their power supply has become a significant area of concern. This paper investigates the performance of diverse ...

In some flyback power supply circuits, we have to implement outputs in the secondary of the transformer that are isolated from the other outputs that share a common ground. Technically no feedback ...

Part II of Art. 690 provides the circuit requirements for PV systems. The first requirement it covers is the maximum PV system direct-current (DC) circuit voltage. This value is used when selecting ...

Article 690 covers solar installations, except large-scale ones (those are covered in Article 691) [Sec. 690.1], as shown in Fig. 1. There are three important definitions: “Photovoltaic (PV) system” ...
