SMPS is the abbreviation of switching mode power supply, a kind of high-frequency power conversion device and a power supply device. Its function is to convert a level of voltage to the voltage or ...

PartSim is a web-based program that enables users to create and simulate electronic circuits without installing any software. This article will continue our exploration of the possibilities provided ...

Dual power supplies are circuits that generate two different output voltages from a single input source. There are numerous types and configurations possible. The most common configuration provides ...

Is my power supply OK, and what if it isn’t? Is my microprocessor still working? In part 1, we examined the operation of power supply supervisory ICs that can detect when the supply voltage is too low ...

Is my power supply OK? What about my microprocessor? What if something goes wrong? Simulations show what happens if dc voltage drops. Microprocessors can behave in unwanted ways when their power ...

Abstract: Summary form only given. While most Silicon issues found in a complex Mixed Signal System On a Chip(SoC) usually result in a long debug, design fixing and verification cycles, having an ...

Modern integrated circuits are increasingly vulnerable to power supply noise and the ensuing induced jitter, phenomena that can significantly impair circuit reliability and performance. The interplay ...

The general industry trend is to make electronic products more efficient and, in general, consume less energy. One of the major considerations is to minimize the standby power of electronic circuits.

Abstract: Circuits optimized for minimum energy consumption operate typically in the subthreshold regime with ultra-low power-supply-voltages. Speed of subthreshold logic circuits is enhanced with an ...
