In many applications such as computing, the power rail’s load transient requirement are becoming more and more restrictive. Furthermore, because it involves complex Laplace transfer function ...

“Ground bounce” is the amount that a ground return rises or falls relative to the system's 0V reference, and, in a dc/dc-switching converter, ground bounce can be many volts, often because of changing ...

Popularity and perceived advantages of current-mode control (CMC) have made it de rigueur as a loop control architecture with many power management IC manufacturers and power supply vendors. Also ...

Open-loop current sensors have a definite price advantage over closed-loop counterparts. While you can use them in drive applications where torque accuracy isn't demanding — such as pump and fan ...

Here’s a question for you: when your PCB has a ground plane layer, where do return signals flow? It seems like a trick question, but as [Kristof Mulier] explains, there’s more to return path routing ...
