- High-current, low-voltage shunt regulatorThis design idea describes a high-current (up to 8 A) shunt-regulator built around the TLV431 low-voltage, adjustable, precision shunt-regulator IC. Special attention was paid to implementing this design as a...May 16, 2024
- Add a grounded-switch feature for TOPSwitch on/off controlThe Power Integrations TOPSwitch family of integrated flyback-regulator ICs provides exceptional performance in small, low-pin-count packages. For the lowest-pin-count packages, the multifunction, or M, pin serves...Mar 26, 2024
- Circuit forms constant-current SCRA typical SCR (silicon-controlled rectifier) requires a trigger current, which causes the SCR structure to latch on. Once the device latches, the current through the SCR is solely a function of external component...Feb 21, 2023
- Shunt regulator provides overvoltage protectionThe circuit in Figure 1 uses a typical technique for varying the output voltage of a power supply via a programmable control voltage. Although the topology and schematic details of the power supply are not...Jun 27, 2022
- Simple Circuit Allows Long PWM Soft StartsAvailable from multiple sources, the UC384x family of current-mode, PWM (pulse-width-modulated) power-supply controllers offers good performance and has spawned a variety of similar ICs. All members of the UC384x family...Apr 1, 2022
