Converting a .pdf to a .docx and back again may seem like a quick and easy thing you can do online for free—but that doesn't mean it's safe. A new notice from the FBI Denver Field Office warns that ...

Abstract: This article presents a nonisolated single-switch low loss boost converter with a high step-up voltage. Typically, the duty cycle of boost converters is increased to achieve high voltage ...

Platinum, a metal that helps craft aesthetically pleasing jewelry, also finds use in a car's exhaust for entirely non-aesthetic reasons. The catalytic converter is required on nearly every car to ...

The theory of boost converter operation. How to build boost converters using the SLG47105. Discover real-life examples where these devices can be used. DC-DC converters are widely used to efficiently ...

Traditional synchronous boost converters offer little to no protection against short-circuit events at the output. Due to the boost converter’s topology, when the output is shorted to ground, a direct ...
