This application note explains the calculation of external capacitor value for buck converter IC circuit. Change of capacitance value due to temperature can obtain stable temperature characteristic by ...

This document describes a Z8 Encore! XP-based Buck Converter Battery Charger reference design that employs Zilog’s Z8F042A MCU to control a step-down DC-DC converter (also known as a buck converter) ...

In Part 1 of this two-part series, we discussed the key stresses in the three conventional dc-dc converter topologies relating to the inductor and the input and output capacitors. We indicated what ...

Using digital-loop control, a PWM controller minimizes duty cycle to optimize efficiency of a single-phase synchronous buck converter and boost current delivery. Today's bandwidth requirements are ...
