E-PEAS NEW BUCK-BOOST ICS ENABLES HIGHLY EFFICIENT ENERGY HARVESTING FROM SOLAR & VIBRATIONAL SOURCES

Expanding its portfolio of advanced power management ICs (PMICs) for energy harvesting applications, e-peas has announced two new devices capable of further pushing the performance envelope. The RF AEM30330, Vibration AEM30330 and solar AEM10330 PMICs both utilize a buck-boost architecture. This enables them to cover a greater range of input voltage levels (from 100mV right through to 4.5V), meaning that low and high power […]

SWITCHMODE POWER SUPPLY TOPOLOGIES EXPLAINED

The role of power supply is crucial for electronic circuits because without sufficient power, the circuit cannot function at its optimal level. On the other hand, an exceeded power supply can deteriorate the circuit components by heating effect. There are usually two choices for power supply topologies; Linear Power Supply and Switched Mode Power Supply (SMPS). The linear

NCH6300HV HIGH VOLTAGE DC-DC POWER BOOSTER FOR NIXIE DISPLAYS

When the switch is open initially, there is not much resistance, so high current flows through the inductor. The energy in the inductor is due to the magnetic fields. When the switch is closed, the impedance in the circuit increases and the current will be reduced. The magnetic field previously created will be reduced in
