All buck converters need capacitors on the input. Actually, in a perfect world, if the supply had zero output impedance and infinite current capacity and the tracks had zero resistance or inductance, ...

More and more portable devices now use ceramic capacitors for filtering of dc/dc-converter inputs. Ceramic capacitors offer the advantages of small size, low ESR (equivalent series resistance) and ...

November 3, 2011. Power Sources Unlimited Inc. has announced the Traco Power TEP 150WI Series with input filter module. The filter module is now available on a standard assembly together with the TEP ...

For protecting dc/dc converters from EMI, the EFIL-100-10 input filter measures 1" x 2" x 0.47" can be used with a single dc/dc converter or as the front end for multiple converters as long as the ...

Frontgrade Technologies, a leading provider of mission-critical electronics for aerospace and defense, has successfully tested its Gallium Nitride (GaN)-based DC-DC converter and complementary ...

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Please replace the release issued February 19, 2025 with the following corrected version due to multiple revisions. The ...

The consequences can be costly, ranging from production downtime to compromised equipment and even safety hazards. Certainly, capacitors are indeed responsible for 30% of power electronics failures, ...

DC-to-DC switching converters are widely used in most portable devices. They efficiently generate various regulated supply voltages for different sub-blocks within the same system board. A typical ...
