Hacks of Electronics
Engineers and designers widely use a buck converter circuit, also known as a step-down converter, to efficiently reduce a higher input voltage to a lower output voltage while maintaining high efficiency. They commonly use it in power supplies, battery chargers, electric vehicles, and embedded systems. Buck Converter Circuit Diagram Below is a typical Buck Converter […]
The avalanche diode is a specialized type of semiconductor diode designed to operate in the reverse breakdown region without getting damaged. It plays a critical role in protecting electronic circuits from high voltage spikes and is commonly used in voltage regulation and surge protection applications. This article explores the avalanche diode in depth, from its […]
A Regulated Power Supply Block Diagram represents the working principle of a linear regulated power supply, which provides a stable DC output voltage. Unlike switching power supplies, linear regulators use transformers, rectifiers, and voltage regulators to ensure smooth voltage. A Linear Regulated Power Supply Circuit Diagram illustrates its detailed design. These power supplies are preferred […]
