Welcome to Power Tips! With the emphasis today on the need for more efficient and cost-effective power solutions, we created this column to provide helpful tips on a variety of power management topics ...

There were these quasi-resonant DC to DC converters being used en group and their intended operating frequency was 100 kHz. The system of which they were a part had micro-computer control with ...

Basically, we've got a discussion here at work WRT using a balun specced for CAT5e with CAT6. I say that it's not a problem, my co-worker says that since it's not designed for it, it's not going to ...

The MAX7057 crystal-referenced ASK/FSK transmitter can operate at any frequency in the 300 MHz to 450 MHz range with the proper crystal frequency and can transmit data at rates up to 100 kb/s NRZ (50 ...

If you run your variable frequency drives at 60 Hz and below, you are not alone. Nearly all the VFDs in North America operate below this nominal frequency threshold. Yet a growing number of ...

Most radio engineers today will recall uncomfortable evenings and cold nights spent in dog houses making antenna impedance measurements, or worse, still trying to balance a laboratory model GR bridge ...

HSINCHU, Taiwan--Feb. 21, 2006--UMC (NYSE:UMC)(TSE:2303), a world leading semiconductor foundry, today announced that it has fabricated a push-push Voltage-Controlled Oscillator (VCO) with an ...

One problem with high frequency magnetic design is how to sort out the losses that contribute to a part's efficiency. With the exception of dc resistance, these losses are very difficult to separate ...
