Range of transformer Q variation for UC3844B converter?
Here the UC3844B High Performance Current Mode Controller (at left, SO-8) is used with a custom transformer to step down bus voltage to 24V. The transformer is likely rated for about 40W, so ...

What is the relation between the control voltage and resulting pwm in a voltage-mode control system for DC-DC converters?
I'm currently learning about negative feedback and voltage mode control for various DC-DC converters. I'm very confused about how the control voltage changes the pwm signal, along with how the ...

Voltage mode (PWM) control
For a buck converter, I am trying to understand how the appropriate signal is sent to the PWM block to control the duty cycle of the FET. When the output voltage is equal to your reference voltage (...

What PWM frequency to use on SMPS
Just to give a little back ground on the project - I am currently building a buck converter linked up to 2 * 250W solar panels in parallel, then use an MPPT algorithum to track the max power. I will ...

Audible noise in DC-DC buck converter
In my design, I have a +3.3 V SMPS that provides power to digital circuits (microcontroller, EEPROM, etc.). The microcontroller allows applying a 100 Hz PWM signal with variable duty cycle and with an ...
