A wind energy conversion system needs a maximum power point tracking strategy. In the literature, several works have interested in the search for a maximum power point. Generally, their goals are to ...

As coal and gas plants are taken offline to be replaced by wind and solar, grid stability and system strength can become serious challenges. This is due to the inherent inertia provided by rotating ...

Asynchronous vs. synchronous topologies. How a synchronous boost LED controller minimizes efficiency losses. The challenge of low-input-voltage operation. High-power LEDs continue to proliferate in ...

The digital control of switching power supplies is firmly established in everything from EV onboard chargers (OBCs) to power-supply units (PSUs) in AI data centers to renewable-energy systems that ...

Figure 1. Using a high-side current monitor (U2) to generate a proportional feedback voltage, this synchronous boost converter (U1) shifts automatically between its high-power and low-power modes of ...
