The AC/DC power supply, commonly referred to as an AC/DC converter, is a vital element in several electronic applications, including consumer electronics, industrial, robotics, medical, and military ...
The demand for smaller, lighter, and more efficient AC/DC USB power delivery (PD) chargers is always a challenge for power-supply design engineers. Below 100 W, the quasi-resonant flyback is still the ...
The battery as we know it today was an invention of Italian chemist and physicist Alessandro Volta. He witnessed electricity splitting water into its constituent elements of oxygen and hydrogen and ...
Power relays are specifically designed to handle either AC or DC. It’s important to know the fundamental differences between them before building them into a system. Introduction to AC and DC Power ...
A new reference design developed by ROHM Semiconductor uses a single microcontroller (MCU) to control both sides of the AC-DC power supply — the power-factor-correction (PFC) AC-DC converter stage and ...
