    Boost regulator

    I have a project with a step up dc/dc converter. It is a ltc3400 chip. At the moment it is working fine 2v to 4v but it seems to stop working down at 1.5v input.( The spec is 0.85v minimum input). I was wondering if anyone knows any problems that might occur as the input voltage is reduced.

    DC/DC Boost Converter not handling Load

    Hello Everyone, I built the circuit below with the PAM2423 Boost converter IC.... Here is the datasheet. I am wanting to use it to get about 3-4 Amps of current at 5V out of a 12,000mAH Li-ion Battery Pack, which will put out between 3V and 4.2V.... I built this exact circuit with only 2 small...

    Ripple in output voltage

    I am working on an Active Clamp Forward converter. Schematic is given here: Specs: Output voltage-5V Input voltage 26..42V frequency=500KHz Output power=10W It is working fine in open loop, but in closed loop I am getting a ripple in output Voltage of 2.5Volts Peak to peak. Voltage...

    Minimum clearance

    Hello! I am using FCPF220N80 MOSfet for 400 Volts operation. it is rated for 800Volts. I have one doubts though, The clearance(distance) between the drain and source pins of the mosfet is only 2.5 mm. Will it be able to sustain without any damage...

    Gate Driver for Current-Fed Converters

    Hello people! I am trying to find a gate driver for IGBTs for a current-source full bridge topology. The main difference between current-fed and normal voltage-fed converters is that due to a boost inductance at the input, there should always be a path of current flow. So, as we give dead time...

    Half-bridge DC/DC converter?

    Hello, I have designed a half-bridge DC/DC converter, but I am not not sure if this works properly. I asking cause the transformer is designed to give 380 V output (where the ratio is 7:14), but I only obtain around 277 V in the output of the converter.

    Half-bridge DC/DC converter

    I am trying to simulate a half-bridge DC/DC converter, and I would like to increase the output voltage to at least 320 V. Do you have some suggestion on how to do that?

    Buck-boost

    Hello everyone, I am making a buck boost converter with TL494. Operating frequency is 250KHz. problem is that whenever I am increasing the duty more than 40% ,switch is getting burned. Note Input voltage is only 18 V and output current is 0.5A. I am using IRF540 . Inductor is 110uH. Can anyone...

    DC/DC converter - change the output current?

    I think the output current I get from the DC/DC converter is way too low, it should be at least 6-8 A, not in mA that I got. I think the resistor that I have in the end of the converter is needed in order to obtain 400 V. Do anyone have any suggestion what could be the problem? I found a...

    Non-Linear Resistance Control

    All, I’m working a project in which I will need to control the output of a DC/DC converter using a microcontroller. I’m planning on using the LM27402 DC/DC Controller IC from TI. My application circuit will be very similar to the circuit taken from page 2 of the evaluation board datasheet and...
