Dialog Semiconductor has announced a 10A switched-capacitor voltage divide-by-two, that operates at up to 98% efficiency, hitting or exceeding 95% at 10A. Called DA9313, it can deliver over 50W from ...

Helix Semiconductors’ HS200 DC-DC MuxCapacitor Power IC is a new type of voltage divider that can play an integral role in a distributed power architecture (DPA) system. It provides a high-efficiency ...

When we do textbook analysis, we tend to ignore the real-world concerns for the sake of learning. So, a typical theoretical voltage divider is simply two resistors. But if you examine a low-pass RC ...

There are a number of reasons why an engineer would want to “split” a voltage rail in their design. Sometimes parts of the circuit, like a sensor or an IC, require a bipolar supply. Other reasons are ...

This tutorial explains how ceramic capacitor type designations, such as X7R and Y5V, imply nothing about voltage coefficients. Engineers must check the data to know, really know, how a specific ...

Measuring extremely high dc voltages of 10 kV or more usually requires a suitably equipped high-voltage ohmmeter or a digital multimeter and high-voltage divider, along with the proper safety ...
