This application note shows how to use linear voltage regulators to provide a constant current. Two circuits are presented, one for high-side and another for low-side current sources. The MAX1818 and ...

The LM4041 has been around for over 20 years. During those decades, while primarily marketed as a precision adjustable shunt regulator, this classic device also found its way into alternative ...

Charging Principles of Supercapacitors and Charger Selection The charging process of a supercapacitor essentially involves storing charge in its electrode materials through an external power source.

The JEDEC 35 Standard (EIA/JESD35, Procedure for Wafer-Level Testing of Thin Dielectrics) describes voltage ramp (V-ramp) and current ramp (J-ramp) tests to monitor oxide integrity. These tests are ...

The purpose of this article is to walk through the steps of implementing a ripple injection circuit for constant on-time POLs. It covers how to connect the circuit and then how to calculate the values ...
