International Rectifier expanded its SupIRBuck portfolio of versatile wide input, single output integrated point-of-load (POL) DC-DC voltage regulators with the introduction of the IR380x family for ...

Two basic IC topologies are employed in dc power sources. If the output is lower than the input voltage, the IC is said to be a step-down, or buck converter. If the output is higher than the input ...

International Rectifier (IR) recently introduced the local interconnect network (LIN)-controlled alternator-regulator for next-generation vehicles. IR’s solution optimizes performance in intelligent ...

A diode is a device that allows current to flow in one direction but not in the other. This ability makes diodes useful in many applications, including converting AC to DC, regulating voltages, and ...

With this voltage regulator extension circuit you can increase the output current up to 10 A. T1 power transistor has a resistor in the emitter and thus the transistor’s current is proportional to the ...
