After discussing the three transistor high-side buck p-mosfet driver (a recognised circuit and not mine) with some of EW’s sage commenters, I wondered once again if I could design something similar ...
The switching speed of a power MOSFET charge-controlled device depends on the speed with which an associated gate driver circuit can charge its input capacitance. For the last 20 years, many excellent ...
Electronic engineers know the common mantras when it comes to creating new designs: Make it cheaper. Make it smaller. Make it faster. These goals, along with technological evolution, keep most ...
Power supplies that use diodes to rectify an ac voltage to obtain a dc voltage must deal with inherent inefficiencies. A standard diode or ultra-fast diode can have a 1-V forward voltage or higher at ...
The use of Operational amplifiers can improve the performance of a wide variety of signal processing circuits. In rectifier circuits, the voltage drop that occurs with an ordinary semiconductor ...
