Lightweight, small-size, and high-power-density power converter systems, which use only switches and capacitors in their power stage, have no need for transformers or inductors in their design. This ...

With laptops continuing to slim down in form factor and tablets grabbing larger market shares as time goes on available PCB space is vanishing quickly. To fit into smaller PCB areas, power electronics ...

Components built using the newer, safer, higher-performance conductive-polymer cathodes are now available for use in 20-V to 28-V power-supply applications. Jayson Young, Technical Product Manager, KO ...

Our fundamental passive and inherently analog components—resistors, capacitors, and inductors—are so conceptually simple and easy to describe that we often don’t fully articulate or appreciate the ...
