After designing a control loop within a power supply, motor drive, or almost any power-electronics product, engineers must establish that they have achieved their target specifications for loop ...

Switching power supplies rely on feedback control loops to ensure that the required voltage and current are maintained under varying load conditions. Design of the feedback control loop influences ...

These three analysis methods are linked together, so this section is organized by control method. In contrast to the large-signal transient response that was reviewed in part 2, we will perform ac ...

Due to their versatility, ease of design, and low cost, flyback converters have become one of the most widely used topologies in power electronics. Its structure derives from one of the three basic ...

Deadtime is a common issue in the process industry, affecting loop performance significantly. In an article from a partner publication of Automation World, Control discuss how adding deadtime to the ...
