We bet [Ian Carey] would agree after taking his old linear power supply PCB and changing it to a switching regulator design. You can see more about the project in the video below.

For example, Tektronix incorporated a switching power supply into a portable oscilloscope in 1966, and RO Associates introduced a 20-kHz switching circuit in 1967, which is regarded as the first ...

There is more power supply filtering for both the audio section and the control section of the amp. The control section has been redesigned with quieter components and lower power consumption, and the ...

However, for some high-power, RF or niche applications, a design based only on discrete power devices may be required. As far as the technology used is concerned, the choice between linear or ...

Types of AC/DC power supplies When a designer has to select the AC/DC power supply which best fits the requirements of the project, different key factors need to be considered, including: Type (custom ...

When reaching for a power supply design it’s normal here in 2022 to reach for a switching design. They’re lightweight, very efficient, and often available off-the-shelf at reasonable prices.

Different components affect system accuracy. Shaury Anand, of Texas Instruments, explains how to choose those most suitable for a precision DC power supply design. Test and measurement applications ...

This circuit uses power bank and DC-DC booster module not only for charging mobile devices but also to provide 1.2V to 37V DC power supply. The compact circuit can even be used during AC mains power ...

Monolithic, or integrated, linear voltage regulators allow you to create a stabilized power supply using just a few components, with significant time and space savings. In addition, many devices ...

PCB Layout Figure 2 shows the PCB layout of the circuit. It is designed on a single-layer PCB board and all component packages are DIP. Pretty easy for everyone to solder the component and start using ...
