Every electronic device has one thing in common: the requirement for power and understanding the trade-offs required to unlock innovation is what power management is all about. In a nutshell, excellent power management extends battery life, makes devices run more efficiently, and allows applications to run smarter. And with the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT), embedded designers are focusing their attention and efforts on system energy usage more than ever.
Virtually all devices and applications now include on-board power-saving features that enable them to turn elements on, place them on standby, or turn them off based on need and efficiency. Power management and control solutions are critical in a wide range of applications, from handheld devices to large-scale industrial, communications, and IoT applications, and designing power management solutions correctly from the start pays huge bonuses later on, in terms of cost, longevity and user satisfaction.
In this latest edition of eTechjournal “Take control of your power“, we will go through the best power management choices for your device, including:
- Selection criteria of a Transformer for an Isolated Buck Converter
- Design considerations for auxiliary gate drive transformers
- Circuit Protection Solutions for Power Management Applications
- How to choose the right battery and overcome battery life challenges
- Benefits of 4th Generation SiC MOSFETs
- Power Solutions to meet space constrained applications
