Evaluation kit aims to simplify low-power wireless charging design
Eggtronic has unveiled a new evaluation board that allows engineers to quickly develop and prototype ultra-efficient, low-component count wireless power transfer designs for low-power applications. The WaveEgg Low-Power (LP) EVB is built on Eggtronic’s proprietary, high-frequency WaveEgg architecture, which optimizes performance and efficiency and reduces component count and form factor in high-performance power converter and wireless power transmission […]
240 W eval board targets gains in USB-C power delivery
Eggtronic has unveiled an evaluation board (EVB) that allows engineers to speed the development and significantly reduce the size and cost of 240W power delivery (PD) 3.1 applications while supporting ultra-fast charging through industry-leading efficiency. The SmartEgg 240W PD 3.1 EVB has a peak efficiency above 95% and operates at over 90% efficiency from light […]
Power conversion technology provides ultra-high efficiency in 500 W to 10 kW applications
Eggtronic has launched a high-performance AC/DC converter technology that provides industry-leading efficiency, reduced component count, and improved EMI performance in high-power applications requiring power factor correction (PFC). The technology, known as ClassEgg, is being demonstrated for the first time at CES 2023. Derived from the traditional boost PFC + LLC resonant power converter, ClassEgg is […]
Ultra-high efficiency, low component count AC/DC supplies include power factor correction
Eggtronic has expanded its EcoVoltas family of high-efficiency AC/DC architectures with the launch of SmartEgg, a Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) solution for power applications in the 75 to 1kW range that need both output voltage regulation and power factor correction (PFC). By enabling much higher no-load-to-full-load efficiency and a 50% smaller bill of materials (BOM) […]
35-W AC/DC development board carries silicon or GaN FETs
Eggtronic has announced an AC/DC demo and development board to speed the design, prototyping and implementation of high-performance, high-efficiency, ultra-compact power converters, power adapters and device chargers. The new 35 W AC/DC development board is built using Eggtronic’s EcoVoltas QuarEgg+ technology. Suitable for both USB-PD and fixed power output applications, the board is available with […]
Wireless charging scheme delivers 300 W over 40 mm
Eggtronic has announced E2WATT, a new AC power technology that will boost the power, efficiency, charging distance, and data transmission capabilities of wireless charging applications. Offering efficiency comparable with the best conventional wired AC adapters, E2WATT provides the foundation for taking future mobile charging designs into new segments including laptops, AV equipment, and even home […]
