The design of a switching power supply has always been considered a blend of magic and art by every engineer that designs one for the first time. Fortunately, today the market offers different tools ...

The input stage of an off-line power converter usually contains an LC averaging filter. A common practice is to damp the LC filter using additional reactive/dissipative components. In this article, we ...

I think it was a two-stage mains input filter from Schurter that got me thinking about CLCLC input filtering. And it all seemed so simple until I started reading around to understand it. I supposed I ...

How to decide between buffered and un-buffered (switched capacitor), high-speed analog-to-digital converters, with an example of anti-aliasing filter design. The fundamental end goal when using an ADC ...

Noise is a constant problem in power-supply design. While there are FCC limits on the electromagnetic interference (EMI) radiating out into the air as well as the conducted noise that your design ...
