We are big fans of the Falstad circuit simulator. Sure, it isn’t perfect, but there’s nothing else like it when you want to whip up a simple circuit. But we were blown away when we saw a more ...
In this power tip, I will demonstrate a simple modification to a pulse width modulation (PWM)-controlled full bridge that can improve efficiency by achieving zero-voltage switching (ZVS) and eliminate ...
The main simplification was using a constant PWM signal. The result is that the output voltage is a fixed fraction of the input voltage. For a regulator, the pulse width will need to depend on the ...
