Allegro added a 3A buck converter which uses valley current-mode control ideal for applications requiring high switching frequencies, high input voltages (9V-46V) and low output voltages (0.8V-15V).

Lower operating voltages, increased current requirements, and the dynamic characteristics of formerly well-behaved µP loads place new demands on power distribution and management. To meet these ...

Linear Tech has brought out a synchronous current mode monolithic buck-boost converter that delivers up to 5A of continuous output current in buck mode from a wide variety of input sources, including ...

For the PDF version of this article, click here. When designing converters, it is often desirable to measure the dc current coming into the converter. This is particularly true when batteries are ...

Because of the widespread use of pulse-width modulation (PWM), the efficiency of a synchronous buck converter operating in this mode is well understood. However, relatively few designers understand ...

The LTC7150S is a 20V, 20A monolithic synchronous buck converter with differential VOUT remote sensing. The device’s phase lockable controlled on-time constant frequency current mode architecture ...

The course is focused on current-mode control techniques, which are very frequently applied in practical realizations of switched-mode. Upon completion of the course, you will be able to understand, ...
