Linear Technology announces the LT3790 , a synchronous buck-boost DC/DC controller that delivers up to 250 W of power with a single IC. Its 4.7 V to 60 V input voltage range makes it ideal for a wide variety of automotive and industrial ...
Zhongming Ye, Linear Technology Design Note 509 Introduction Flyback converters are widely used in isolated DC/DC applications because of their relative simplicity and low cost compared to alternative isolated topologies. Even so, designing a ...
By Stephen Evanczuk Digi-Key Voltage references are vital in ensuring accuracy in any measurement application. For sensor applications powered by energy harvesting, where engineers need to manage very-tight power budgets, ultra-low-power voltage ...
By Albert Wu, Linear Technology EDN-Europe In many electronic systems, it is necessary to provide a bipolar (positive and negative) voltage or current into a particular type of load. Loads that require bipolar voltages/currents include FPGA body ...
Kris Lokere, Linear Technology EDN Introduction The “Internet of Things” refers to a growing trend to connect not only people and computers, but all sorts of “things” to the Internet. In applications such as industrial ...
The LT3952 is a current mode step-up DC/DC converter with an internal 60 V, 4 A DMOS power switch. It is specifically designed by Linear Technology to drive high power LEDs in multiple configurations. It combines input and output current regulation ...
George Qian, Linear Technology Design Note 525 Introduction Traditionally, isolated power supplies use an opto-coupler in the feedback loop to transfer regulation information across the isolation barrier. Unfortunately, an opto-coupler’s gain ...
Martin Jagelka, Martin Daricek Martin Donoval EDN Continuous monitoring of heart activity permits measurement of heart rate variability (HRV), a basic parameter of heart health and other diseases. This Design Idea is a new design of pulse oximetry ...
Linear Technology Corporation announces the LT8494, a current mode, fixed frequency SEPIC/boost DC/DC converter with an internal 2 A, 70 V switch. Ultralow quiescent current of only 7 uA makes the device ideal for always-on automotive or other ...
Mike Rose EDN Using the fast dynamic load described in this Design Idea to test the transient response of a power system can reveal many critical operating characteristics. The voltage deviation resulting from a fast current step can provide ...
