Power supply designers are all too familiar with the fact that the power switches are among the key contributors to overall power loss. For high current applications, this is the reason lower losses ...

Many of today’s switching power supplies implement synchronous rectifiers to improve efficiency. In isolated topologies, the power-supply controller typically is located on the primary side of the ...

Three-level rectifiers and inverters constitute a critical component in modern power conversion systems, offering improved voltage quality, reduced harmonic distortion and increased power efficiency ...

The transition from diodes to synchronous-rectification (SR) MOSFETs in secondary circuits of flyback converters increases with each new generation of MOSFETs, improving performance at little or no ...

The AUIRS1170S is an automotive qualified smart secondary side gate driver IC designed to drive N-channel power MOSFETs as synchronous rectifiers in both hard switching and soft switching / resonant ...
