There are a number of reasons why measuring the output ripple in switching regulators is such an important and delicate task. It is possible to receive erroneous readings while trying to measure this ...

With the increasing use of low-voltage, high-current loads such as FPGAs within spacecraft avionics, engineers are increasingly having to design-in switching-mode regulators to generate supply rails.

A power supply’s output capacitors - which are typically ceramic capacitors with values between 100nF and 100μF - cost money, take up space, and, in the case of delivery bottlenecks, can be difficult ...

What are output capacitors and how do they impact power supplies? Simulating a circuit to reduce the amount of capacitors in a supply. What is adaptive voltage positioning? A power supply’s output ...
