The LT8711 [1] is a DC/DC controller that supports synchronous buck, boost, SEPIC and ZETA topologies, or nonsynchronous buck-boost topologies. Analog Devices offers numerous synchronous buck and ...

The advantages offered by a synchronous buck or boost topology can also be applied to a buck-boost topology, where the converter’s output voltage falls within its input range. In this case, a ...

The IRDCSYN2 reference design board for the IR1176 application-specific synchronous rectification IC is rated at 3.3 Vdc and 20A with an efficiency of 90%. The reference design includes a fully ...

Power-supply design becomes complicated when you’re faced with multiple conflicting specifications. One example is the design of a double-data-rate (DDR) memory supply for an automotive environment.

Solid Edge with synchronous technology is a history-free feature-based CAD system that combines the speed and flexibility of explicit modeling with parametric design. Included is part and assembly ...

Lack of coordination between asynchronous resets and synchronous logic clocks leads to intermittent failures on power up. In this series of articles, we discuss the requirements and challenges of ...

The dual-sprocket design of Synchronous Plus synchronous drives feature both metric and standard-tapped holes coupled with a high-capacity Synchronous Plus belt, resulting in 50% more horsepower ...

In an era when power has become a fundamental design constraint, questions persist about whether asynchronous logic has a role to play. It is a design style said to have significant benefits and yet ...

Non-mainstream technologies can offer advantages over more commonly used approaches, but usually at some additional cost (otherwise they’d probably be mainstream). The additional cost could be in ...
