The NXP TEA172x family is a series of small, low-cost module SMPS controller ICs that operate directly from the rectified universal mains input and are tailored for low-power applications up to 5, 8, ...

Integrated circuits (IC) serve as the backbone of any information system and mobile devices. This course provides an in-depth review of the advanced technology in ...

CMOS current mirrors are pivotal in modern electronic circuitry, providing accurate current replication that is essential for biasing, amplification and active loading in a myriad of integrated ...

Current-control switching-mode power supplies (SMPS) are gaining in popularity because they allow pulse-by-pulse current control and monitoring, making them more reliable and robust than their voltage ...

Editor's Note: Here's another take on the transformerless AC line power supply, which finds use in some well-insulated, low-power devices. Our technical reviewer pointed out that C ac should be an ...

One of the biggest contributors to power loss in power conversion circuits (DC-DC, AC-DC) are resistive losses when the semiconductor switches are in the ON stage. In order to create industry-leading ...
