While passive precharge employs a power resistor to create an RC circuit that charges the capacitor asymptotically, active precharge can employ a switching converter with a buck topology that uses ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a machine learning (ML)-based design for a load-independent (LI) wireless power transfer (WPT) system. The proposed design strategy formulates the WPT design as an ...

Sensors monitoring mechanical and biological systems must often scavenge power from the thing being sensed. The oscillator circuits shown here let you operate those sensors. Sensor circuits that ...

Beyond bothering large language models (LLMs) with funny questions, there’s the general idea that they can act as supporting tools. Theoretically they should be able to assist with parsing and ...

Finding a fashion school that’s right for you can feel like a daunting task. After all, the amount of available options are wide, varied, and vast—much like the fashion industry itself. The good news: ...

Commentary from the Top 500 Design Firms in 2024 reveals a shift in the use of artificial intelligence to complement design services. Last year, AI was the exception more than the rule, but this year ...

Lightweight, small-size, and high-power-density power converter systems, which use only switches and capacitors in their power stage, have no need for transformers or inductors in their design. This ...

Abstract: Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS (BCD) technologies enable applications of high industrial interest, whereby high-voltage and highpower circuits are combined with high-density digital logic on a single die ...
