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 ...

Another lifetime ago, and as a young engineer, I had to design a power conversion system. The input power came as raw electrical energy from a jet engine during flight. The output power was input to ...

1. Converter circuit is 157 mm3 including two chip inductors. The basic series capacitor buck converter shown in Fig. 4 harnesses the hybrid switched capacitor/inductor approach. It uniquely combines ...

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 ...

This course introduces the basic concepts of switched-mode converter circuits for controlling and converting electrical power with high efficiency. Principles of converter circuit analysis are ...
