The circuit has been designed to produce a power supply that will generate 30 volts with 2 A current by utilizing the MC1466L integrated circuit with the aid of multiple Darlington transistors.

The traditional control topologies of voltage-mode and current-mode control are well known and studied by every power supply engineer. Less known are the hysteretic-based topologies and the advantages ...

The Joule Thief Circuit is a simple and clever electronic design that can power an LED using a nearly dead battery. The project demonstrates how basic components like a transistor, a toroidal coil, ...

Two Solarlytics units installed next to a DC combiner. DC-DC converters are one option for tackling the issue of voltage collapse. Image: Solarlytics. As solar plants age and face varying ...

Brace yourself for the disclaimer: Everything that I set before you should be read with the idea that “this is how I've come to understand it.” If somebody catches something that's flat-out wrong, or ...

Download this article in PDF format. Jacques and Pierre Curie, French physics, discovered the piezoelectric effect in 1880. When some solid material is mechanically compressed or stressed, the ...

Most everyone that has ever purchased an external amplifier is at least familiar with the term voltage gain. Simply, it is the degree to which an amplifier actually ...
