Microprocessors and application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) require low-voltage, high-current power supplies. These supplies usually have very strict requirements on output-voltage deviations ...

Regardless of the system architecture, the circuit design, or the power levels involved, transient load current step testing is a critical aspect of power-system design, test, and verification.

As part of a power electronics design project involving a 3.6-V dc-dc converter, it became necessary to test and accurately characterize the planar transformer shown in Fig. 1. Transformer operating ...

Staying on budget and on schedule is essential for industrial facilities. Owners and operators like you know how crucial efficient power generation system testing is, but did you know that load bank ...

One part that I find myself using somewhat regularly in microcontroller-based experiments is the “USB power bank” that provides USB-standard 5-V DC output and offers some basic protection features.
