These advanced PFC boost controller ICs, which manage startup scenarios, minimize the add-on components needed to complete circuit function. Experienced designers know that for many system ...

Note that intelligent MPPT controllers can do a better job across the full range, but such improvement is very marginal. This circuit is tuned for a 9V, 3W solar panel. Boost regulators tend to be ...

This circuit follows the classic boost converter topology, using the ATtiny85 to control the switch. The 10 ohm resistor is fed back into the microcontroller’s ADC input, allowing it to sense ...

Electronic circuits typically operate from regulated positive output voltages, often provided by buck regulators. If a negative output voltage is also required, the same buck controller often can be ...
