Solar-photovoltaic arrays seem to get cheaper and more efficient every day, making them increasingly practical in renewable and/or remote power supply applications. Still, the voltage generated by any ...

For some time now, many of EDN’s Design Ideas (DIs) have dealt with ground-referenced, single-power-supplied voltage regulators whose outputs can be configured to produce zero or near-zero volts [1][2 ...

Researchers in India have developed a new method to operate a solar-plus-storage system in a stable manner under varying operating conditions. They claim that their novel technique enables the ...

When a switching regulator generates the main output voltage, additional regulated outputs may be added using various configurations of coupled inductor or charge-pump circuits. Frequently, the lowest ...
