This application note talks about the design of a simple DC-DC converter. Buck converter works similarly to a step down transformer. Buck converter steps down the voltage input into a lower voltage ...

Power supply circuits come in the form of voltage step-up (boost) or the more common step-down (buck) DC/DC converter. Many of today’s applications require multiple voltage rails to drive a variety of ...
