A hybrid DC-DC converter topology boosts efficiency by combining a buck regulator and a charge pump. Is it the future of intermediate bus conversion?

This design example report discusses a 0.5 W non-isolated buck-boost converter using the LNK302P. This design operates in an input voltage ranging from 85 VAC to 265 VAC and delivers an output of 0.5 ...

A synchronous buck-boost converter IC from Linear Technology builds on the success of the company’s LTC3440 by extending that device’s input voltage range and by making burst-mode operation ...

Traditional power-supply design practices place much emphasis on the selection and placement of the output capacitor to meet tight ripple and noise requirements. Customers are willing to spend money ...
