Integrated circuits require a variety of voltages and a wide range of currents, typically supplied by voltage regulators. But increasing power density is resulting in higher power delivery losses.

Power quality personnel at utilities and industrial facilities worldwide are familiar with the potential negative consequences of voltage sags. However, more than 80% of all power disturbances last ...

The LP2951 voltage regulator is commonly used in applications requiring a preset output voltage, which can easily be configured using two resistors. The device provides low dropout regulation over a ...

When a tightly regulated supply voltage is needed, the DC voltage accuracy specification in a switching regulator’s data sheet can be utilised. This value is usually ±1% or ±0.5%. If the voltage ...

In the realm of modern electronics, semiconductor diodes have emerged as fundamental components with diverse applications. One of their pivotal roles lies in the fields of rectification and voltage ...

Determine the range of values of Vi that will maintain the Zener diode of the figure above in the “on” state. To solve for Vi(max), we use the formula But, since IR(max) is not yet known, we have to ...

The distribution system, a key subset of the overall electric grid, provides power to residential, commercial and industrial customers. Voltage and reactive power management and control have been done ...

Why the power-delivery network is critical in modern power electronics. How integrated voltage regulators can improve the PDN and simplify the PCB design. How IVRs improve power delivery to processors ...
