Although heat can be mitigated with bulked up heat sinks, additional external gate drivers, and/or forced airflow, it may be better to simply tie together two or more converters in parallel to spread ...

A higher power boost converter often requires special consideration to minimize power losses and temperature rise in the FETs, diode, and inductor. Regarding FETs, many designers opt to place FETs in ...

Because of cost concerns, one approach for high-power audio amplifiers is to use two boost converters in a parallel main-subsidiary configuration, in which the subsidiary converter’s feedback voltage ...

Linear Technology’s LTC3119 is an efficient, monolithic buck-boost converter that operates with inputs from 2.5 to 18 V (Fig. 1), making it well-suited to operate from one- to four-cell Li-ion ...

eIQ Energy, Inc. today introduced the latest and highest-capacity addition to its vBoost DC Parallel System the new vBoost 600 DC-to-DC converter module, which reduces the installed cost and ...

L4985A/B and L4986A/B power-factor correction (PFC) boost converters from ST integrate 800V startup circuitry and additional valuable proprietary features. The built-in high-voltage startup capability ...
