Constructing a MOSFET switch is one of the basic level electronics projects and could be useful for beginners to get a hang of the various FET transistors. Read through the article to know more on ...

A load switch is an electronic switch. It works like a relay to power supply rails in systems, but it has no moving parts. Load switches are increasingly found in today’s portable electronic devices, ...

How to replace MOSFETs with load switches, and the impact of on-resistance. Swapping out diodes with ideal diodes, and the use of ideal-diode controllers. Why replacing fuses and resettable fuses with ...

Mission critical servers and communications equipment must continue to operate, even as circuit boards and cards are plugged-in or pulled-out for maintenance and capacity adjustment. Hot swap ...

Find a downloadable version of this story in pdf format at the end of the story. TYPICAL HIGH-SIDE, n-channel, hot-swap “soft-switch” systems use a charge pump to drive the gate of an external MOSFET ...

The Forward and Flyback converters are two popular topologies widely used in isolated DC-DC power converters. These topologies are favored by designers for their simplicity, ability to handle multiple ...
