Analog Devices’ controllers enable full functional safety if one of the batteries fail by forcing the other battery to take over Analog Devices’ LT8228 100 V bidirectional buck or boost DC/DC controllers provide sustainable power in hybrid and electric vehicle (EV) critical...

Low quiescent current, also called supply current, might be an important spec for your power-supply design.. by Paul Rako @ electronicdesign.com Quiescent current is the current that a chip needs to operate even if it’s not delivering power. It’s the bare minimum supply current the...

16V, 6A, High Efficiency, Synchronous, Step-Down Converter with Adjustable Current Limit. Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) introduced the MPQ8626, a fully integrated, high-frequency, synchronous, buck converter. According to MPS, the MPQ8626 offers a very compact solution that achieves...

Designers of portable Li-ion battery-powered electronics now have a simplified and more flexible way to add a USB Type-C (USB-C) charging system to their products with the MAX77860 3A switch-mode charger from Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. (NASDAQ: MXIM). This USB-C buck charger...

This application note explains the step-up circuit using a bootstrap capacitor. In buck converters, this circuit is used when the high-side switch is the N-ch MOSFET. The configuration of the circuit in proximity to a buck converter depends on the polarity of the high-side switch.When...

Analog Devices announces the Power by Linear™ LTC3777, a 150V high efficiency (up to 99%) 4-switch synchronous buck-boost DC/DC controller, which operates from input voltages above, below or equal to the regulated output voltage. Its 4.5V to 150V input voltage range operates from...

Under the “Power by Linear” branding it recently created for the product lines it acquired with its purchase of Linear Technology, Analog Devices has added the LT3964, a dual channel, 36V, high efficiency, synchronous, step-down LED driver with internal 40V, 1.6A power switches and...
