Power Management

A new digital storage oscilloscope supports reconfigurable analog and digital inputs, and can operate as a Windows computer.

Borrowing technology from their automobile cousins and robotic systems, these ships will become floating computer and communication systems with very few onboard crew.

Integrating an isolation barrier into a power IC is an example of how packaging technology has advanced the semiconductor state-of-the art. This technology enables these devices to perform as digital isolators and also allows the isolation...

Virtually all present-day DC-DC converters store DC energy in magnetic devices with ferrite cores, such as inductors with DC bias. A new topology for non-isolated step-down dc-dc converters discards ferrite cores completely. The new Resonance...

Portrayed in roadmaps, future trends for power electronic systems will include semiconductors as well as other components and manufacturing impacts.
