Power factor correction (PFC) converters are critical components in modern power electronics, designed to improve the efficiency and quality of power distribution by minimising harmonic distortion in ...

This post sponsored by Texas Instruments. UCC28019A is an 8-pin active Power Factor Correction (PFC) controller that uses boost topology while operating in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM). There is ...

Find a downloadable version of this story in pdf format at the end of the story. Boost power converters have been widely used for Power Factor Correction (PFC) in ac-dc conversions [1] and for power ...

Any boost-converter design will have a practical limit to how much it can step up a voltage from input to output. Pulse-width modulation (PWM) controllers have timing limits that restrict the minimum ...

High power LED lighting is harder than it looks. Power, dimming, control, and communication collide in one design.

Relationship of power density and field strength. Some of the more uncommon power-density apps. RF designers frequently need to know the true power density or field intensity at a particular distance ...
