The power stage of switching converters can be modeled essentially as a PWM-switch. A switch seems to be far from the kind of circuit element that can be linearized, but it can be. This Part 2 ...

The current-mode or peak-current-regulating switching converter is a familiar, almost dominant, power supply circuit consisting of few parts and is usually designed with “cookbook” procedures from PWM ...

Working on an embedded project? An 8-bit microcontroller with a pulsewidthmodulation (PWM) peripheral can provide a low-cost and easy solution to adding natural voice to your next embedded endeavor.

A simple circuit includes a safety interlock switch and a machinery power contactor. Either device can experience a fault, such as a sticking or welded contact. A short circuit also can occur. In each ...

A simple circuit is a chain of different parts with wires and switches which allows electricity to flow around. All electrical appliances use circuits. For electricity to flow correctly, the circuit ...
