The input-rectifier stage of anoffline power supply converts anac-line voltage to a dc voltage, whichpowers a dc/dc converter. If you configurethe rectifier section as a full-wavebridge for a ...

The circuit was designed for providing a microphone line with a balance input signal to improve the quality of sound with sufficient gain and filter. NE5532 – an internally compensated low noise dual ...

Power-supply designers frequently encounter projects where the input voltages are much higher compared to the low output voltages usually require to power the target equipment. Typical output needs ...

Worldwide ac mains voltages can range from 100 to 240 V. To allow for sags (brownouts) and surges, offline ac supplies intended for universal input are rated at 85 to 165 V. The ac frequency ranges ...

As semiconductor chip technology advances towards nanometre and sub-nanometre scales, the demands becomes exponentially more ...
