Transformer Coupled Amplifier: Transformer Coupled Amplifier commences with the load resistance and output power, specification. A signal voltage amplitude may also be stated, as well as the upper and lower…
Transformer Coupled Class B Amplifier: Class B Amplifier - The inefficiency of Class-A amplifiers is largely due to the transistor bias conditions. In a Class-B amplifier, the transistors are biased…
Transformer Coupled Class A Amplifier: Class A Circuit - Instead of capacitor coupling, a Transformer Coupled Class A Amplifier may be used to ac couple amplifier stages while providing dc…
IC Controller for Switching Regulators: The functional block diagram of a MC34063 integrated circuit controller is shown in Fig. 17-38. This IC is designed to be used as a variable…
Step Down Converter: A step-down switching regulator, or Step Down Converter (also termed a buck converter), produces a dc output voltage lower than its input voltage. The basic circuit arrangement…
Switching Regulator Operation: A Switching Regulator Operation can be thought of as similar to a linear regulator, but with the series-pass transistor operating as a switch that is either off,…
Short Circuit Protection Circuit: Power supplies used in laboratories are subject to overloads and short circuits. Short Circuit Protection Circuit by means of current limiting circuits is necessary in such…
Improving Regulator Performance: Error Amplifier Gain - The performance of a regulator is dependent on the voltage gain of the error amplifier. A higher gain amplifier gives better line and…
