by Maniing Xie, System Application Engineer, Power Design Systems, Texas Instruments Electromagnetic interference (EMI) can create serious issues for manufacturers in an industrial environment. A buck converter generates a pulsating ripple current with high di/dt at the input. Without input capacitors, ripple current is supplied by the upper power source. Printed circuit board (PCB) resistance […]

Isolated flyback-type dc/dc converter control ICs for high-power inverters
ROHM has recently announced the availability of isolated flyback-type DC/DC converter control ICs for inverters in high power industrial equipment such as FA/solar inverters and power storage systems. Isolation is almost always built into electronic equipment to provide protection against shock and damage. High voltage, high power industrial applications (including power storage systems and solar […]

MORNSUN 90~528VAC Wide Input voltage AC/DC Converter
MORNSUN releases new 3W three-phase four-wire AC/DC converter LS03-16BxxSS and LD03-16Bxx series which meetUL60950/EN60950/FCC part 15 standards. The series offer 90~528VAC wide input range and meet the requirements of 3×220VAC/380VAC nominal voltage and any two-wire connection from three-phase four-wire system. They also provide high efficiency up to 76%, 4000VAC isolation and output short-circuit and over-current […]
High-voltage converter brings high efficiency to fly-back, buck, and buck-boost topologies
STMicroelectronics has introduced a high-voltage power converter that allows designers to build an ultra-low-consumption, simple, and cost-effective SMPS (Switched-Mode Power Supply) with a 5V output voltage. Particularly suited for low-power applications in home appliances, building, lighting, and motion control, as well as small industrial and consumer applications, the VIPER01 operates directly from a rectified mains […]
