This article provides an examination of the input capacitor requirement for single- and multiple-channel buck converter voltage regulators. The input capacitor of a buck converter is a critical power ...

Buck-boost converters produce a regulated output voltage either less than or greater than the input voltage. When the input voltage is higher than the output, the converter acts as a buck. When the ...

Power supply circuits come in the form of voltage step-up (boost) or the more common step-down (buck) DC/DC converter. Many of today’s applications require multiple voltage rails to drive a variety of ...
