Figure 1 shows a conventional two-switch buck-boost converter. The power stage consists of two switches (Q 1 and Q 2), two diodes (D 1 and D 2), a single inductor (L 1), and input and output ...

A typical example of a switch-mode power supply is that based on the LM2671 or LM2674. The components for it are available for outputs of 3.3 V, 5 V and 12 V. ... Diode D1 is a Schottky type ((Uco≥ 45 ...

Figure 1 shows a simple Schottky diode (D2) placed between drain and source of the low-side GaN switch. This diode will quickly take over the inductor current flow during the dead time of the circuit.

When the switch is on, V DRAIN is near zero volts and the current, I P, flows through the primary winding of the transformer.Energy is stored in the magnetising inductance of the transformer. This ...

In part 1 of this article, the inefficiencies incurred by the MOSFET and the diode of the generic switch-mode power supply (SMPS) were examined. The conductive losses presented by the static ...

Diodes Incorporated (Nasdaq: DIOD) today announced, ... The PI3DBS16222 is a 4-channel, differential crossbar switch with pass-through mode, configured in a 2 x 2 topology.
