Editor’s note: OK designers, pay attention to this series of tutorials for an in-depth understanding of these really useful amplifier architectures that will help you in your designs with a solid and ...

Some applications require a positive voltage to be generated from a negative input voltage. This can be done either by using a transformer based topology, such as a flyback converter, or with a ...

A buck-boost controller IC with four external switching MOSFETs can operate from input voltages above, below, or equal to the output voltage, enabling them to regulate the light output for a string of ...

In the “Say It with Me” series, we’ll take a commonly used concept out of electronics and explain it the best we can. If there’s something that’s been bugging you, or a certain term or concept that ...

Today in power electronics, the folks over at Texas Instruments have put together a video covering low-dropout (LDO) linear regulators. For a hacker, power is pretty fundamental, so it behooves us ...
