Figure 1: In a step-up converter, all you have to do to change the output voltage is change the duty cycle of the switching signal. Interestingly, the circuit raises the voltage by changing the duty ...

What are the types of boost converter topologies? Primarily, boost converter ICs are used in battery-operated or portable electronic devices to "boost" or "step-up" the battery voltage to a higher ...

This is a 5V to 12V DC-DC step-up (boost) converter circuitry that is especially ideal for the USB powered applications. First of all a USB port has two current supply modes. Before detecting the ...

A highly integrated step-up dc-dc converter and power management IC can start up and run from either plus or minus millivolt input sources, making it ideal for energy harvesting applications in which ...

Electronic enthusiasts may be interested in a new high voltage step-up converter offering from 5V to 900V maximum outputs, which are selectable using the provided jumpers or via 4 pin parallel ...
