The aim: Create a 3.3V source from a –5V supply. You can obtain a precise, positive-output voltage from a negative-voltage supply with a boost converter and a linear regulator. The input and output ...

This course introduces more advanced concepts of switched-mode converter circuits. Realization of the power semiconductors in inverters or in converters having bidirectional power flow is explained.

The current-mode or peak-current-regulating switching converter is a familiar, almost dominant, power supply circuit consisting of few parts and is usually designed with “cookbook” procedures from PWM ...
