Power Integrations , the leader in high-voltage integrated circuits for energy-efficient power conversion, announced the MinE-CAP™ IC for high power density, universal input AC-DC converters. By halving the size of the high-voltage bulk electrolytic capacitors required in...

Inrush current/Switch-ON surge is the maximal instantaneous input current drawn by an electrical device when first turned on. Inrush current is much higher than the load’s steady-state current and that’s the source of many problems such as fuse blowing up, load failure, load’s...

Various configuration of linear regulator for parallel operation discussed in this technical article from Analog Devices. Linear regulators provide a simple, low noise solution for dc-dc regulation. However, at higher VIN-VOUT differentials the low efficiency and high power dissipation...

Panasonic’s new NCR18650BD-Improved is the latest evolution of its Li-ion cell – and can be considered as the result of the last years’ efforts to further evolutionize reliability, longevity and performance alongside the requirements of contemporary applications. “Frankly...

T31SN series of 1/32 Brick, 9~53V input, single output, non-isolated DC/DC converters, are the latest offering from a world leader in power systems technology and manufacturing ― Delta Electronics, Inc. This product family provides up to 100 watts of power or 8A of output current....

Murata's MYR series are the PicoBK™ DC/DC converters that integrate a coil and a control IC. The ultra-small form-factor measures 2.5 mm x 2.0 mm x 1.0 mm. The MYR series is significantly smaller than discrete solutions. In most cases, these modules occupy less than half the...

Flex Power Modules' 50 A digital point of load (PoL) regulator has horizontal and vertical mount options available Flex Power Modules' BMR464 regulator can be configured and monitored via PMBus® and measures 30.85 mm x 20.0 mm x 8.2 mm. It accepts input voltages from 4.5 V to 14...

Murata unveiled the MYWGC series from the MonoBK™ DC/DC converter family. The new point-of-load (POL) modules offer a 50-percent smaller footprint than competing solutions and set new standards in size, efficiency and performance. The highly integrated, multi-output DC/DC...
