All buck converters need capacitors on the input. Actually, in a perfect world, if the supply had zero output impedance and infinite current capacity and the tracks had zero resistance or inductance, ...

Buck converters are a critical element in modern power management, providing efficient voltage step‐down in a wide range of systems from battery-operated devices to industrial applications. Their ...

Some of us may have recently stumbled over these mysterious ‘Mini 560’ synchronous buck converter modules at various e-shopping websites. These little modules claim to take in 7-20 VDC and output ...

Designing a circuit is a lot easier on paper, where components have well-defined values, or lacking that, at least well-defined tolerances. Unfortunately, even keeping percentage tolerances in mind ...
