The Up & Down Sides Of Switching & Linear Power Supplies
Switching regulators are smaller and more efficient than linear regulators, but linear regulators are simpler and quieter. The application’s specific requirements determine the final choice. As electronic products become more sophisticated and pack new features into smaller housings, they need more efficient power supplies with higher power density and lower heat dissipation. In addition, ac […]

New Standards For Point-Of-Load DC-DC Converters
The Distributed-power Open Standards Alliance (DOSA) has responded to industry demands for high-density POL modules. It recently announced a 2nd generation standard footprint and pin out design for 12 and 20 A non-isolated point-of-load (POL) dc-dc converters. The new standard establishes the location of pins, recommended pad layout on boards, input and output voltage ranges, […]
12 V, Hot-Swap, Front-End Power Supplies
The FPS1000 12 V output front-end power supplies are for driving non-isolated, point-of-load, dc-dc converters in distributed power systems. They eliminate intermediate bus converters. Output is adjustable from 10.5 to 13.2 V. The new 864-watt model FPS1000-12 complements Lambda’s existing line of 24, 32, and 48 V output models. The supplies each measure 1.61 x […]
