One important innovation in the field of DC/DC power converters is the realization of higher and higher density designs. In the push for smaller-footprint solutions, designers are now focusing on ...

The best news when you power up a prototype supply board for the very first time is when it not only works, but also runs quiet and cool. Unfortunately, this does not always happen. A common problem ...

With the significant reduction in package parasitics provided by the eGaN FET, the package inductance is minimized and is no longer the major parasitic loss contributor. The high frequency loop ...

Learning to lay out a printed circuit board takes some time. But after you’ve churned out a few it’s really pretty easy. If you find yourself at that point it may be time to learn about more ...

The ability to operate at up to 25A is made possible by a new, thermally enhanced 5 x 6 mm PQFN (Power Quad Flat No-Lead) package using a copper clip, as shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 1. Fabrication of the ...

Designing circuit boards for high speed applications requires special considerations. This you already know, but what exactly do you need to do differently from common board layout? Building on where ...
