In the early digital era, logic gates were made exclusively of transistors and discrete components. The obvious occupation of a large space and increased heat dissipation pushed technology to ...

This course introduces more advanced concepts of switched-mode converter circuits. Realization of the power semiconductors in inverters or in converters having bidirectional power flow is explained.

Switched-mode power supplies are found in electronics all around us. They provide the DC voltages that power our computers, cell phones, chargers, appliances, and myriad other electronic devices.

Resonant-mode topologies offer many benefits over traditional buck, boost, and flyback solutions. These include soft-switching, higher operating frequencies, higher power density, and higher ...

Process devices operate when an input level, such as voltage, reaches the required value for the device to operate. The transistor is on, when the input voltage is greater than or equal to \(0.7 V\).

Soft-switching inverters represent a significant advancement in power electronics, enabling reduced switching losses and enhanced overall efficiency. These devices utilise techniques such as ...

Transitron of Ealing are marketing a new semiconductor tetrode, the Binistor, which has been developed for switching and storage circuits. The tetrode comes from America where it has been developed by ...

Infineon Technologies has launched an ultra-low resistance high-side switch in a 9.9 x 11.7 x 2.3mm surface-mount package. For automotive use on 12V circuits, the IC is “ISO 26262-ready for supporting ...
