A new design solution implements analog-digital fusion control for power supplies serving small to medium industrial and consumer equipment operating at 30 W to 1 kW. It provides the same ...

Switch-mode power supplies can use digital current-mode techniques for protection against peak currents, magnetic field "ratcheting," and input-voltage variations. Digital control of switch-mode power ...

Mixed-signal designs combine the most powerful features and advantages of both analog and digital circuitry. One common mixed-signal architecture is a chain of analog signal blocks, each controlled by ...

While DSPs are the primary controllers in uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) with power-factor correction (PFC), ac generation and battery management, microcontrollers serve secondary functions for ...

The distinction between analog and digital signals is very simple, but it can still be a challenge to wrap one's mind around the concepts that define the two systems. Just when you think you've got it ...

Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss what’s changing in analog design with the shift toward heterogeneous integration and more safety- and mission-critical applications with Mo Faisal, ...
