Boost Voltage with Switched-Capacitor Power-Density Circuits March 15, 2024 This article highlights the development of switching-mode converters without the use of inductors or transformers.

Figure 1 compares two power supplies. The top supply is the single-phase design with a single input inductor. The circuit below it is the two-phase design. The single-phase design requires ...

Figure 1 shows a simplified buck-boost circuit and the switching voltage present on the inductor. The circuit’s similarity to a standard buck converter should be immediately apparent. In fact, it is ...

Researchers at the University of California San Diego and CEA-Leti have developed a novel circuit design that could boost the development of miniature robotic devices, specifically microdrones ...

The power supply that's described here boosts the voltage from a 1.5-V flashlight cell to 3.5 V across an LED, while the LED and flashlight cell are in series with the power supply ...

For the first time researchers have run an electrical circuit entirely off power in trees. The findings suggest a new power source for wireless sensors -- and a way to monitor tree health.
