Interleaving isolated and nonisolated power stages is a well understood design technique within the power supply design industry. By far the most widely applied interleaved topology is the multiphase ...

High efficiency is key in applications such as data centers, and new standards codify the now-mandatory requirements.

Experienced designers know that for many system scenarios—even as disparate as a data link versus a power supply—one of the biggest challenges is getting the function to initialize and start up ...

Mains-connected boost Power Factor Correction (PFC) circuits are employed in order to meet EMI standards. The EMI filter together with the boost inductor has to attenuate the High Frequency (HF) ...

IR’s new IRS2505L power factor correction boost IC comes in a 5-pin SOT23 package for switch mode power supply, LED drivers, and fluorescent and HID electronic ballast applications. The IC features a ...

Power Factor Correction (PFC) circuits are critical in AC-to-DC power conversion systems, aligning input current with instantaneous line voltage to maximize real power usage and minimize reactive ...
