In this installment of Circuit VR, we’ll look at a simple buck converter — that is a switching regulator that takes a higher voltage and produces a lower voltage. The first one won’t ...

In the last installment of Circuit VR, we walked around a simplified buck converter. The main simplification ... fraction of the input voltage. For a regulator, the pulse width will need to ...

Assignments include simulation of a dc-dc converter, analysis of an inverting dc-dc converter, and modeling and efficiency analysis of an electric vehicle system and of a USB power regulator ...
