This is compact power factor controller circuit. It stabilizes device’s electrical demand to give best power factor characteristic of many types of loads. In many application, a direct rectification of the AC line followed by bulk capacitor filtering is used to get the high DC voltage. This capacitor filtering will produce a poor power factor and current spike that distort […]

Switching Regulator for High Power Efficiency When you should regulate a high voltage to a much lower voltage, switching regulator must be the only choice. Fortunately, a simple switcher integrated circuit chip is available, let you build a complete step-down switching regulator using five components. The switching regulator IC used in this circuit is LM2575 series like we use in […]

Designing wide range variable power supply using linear regulator is easy, but suffer terrible efficiency when it should regulate 60 Volt constant source down to 5 Volt or lower, the efficiency would be 5/60 or 8.33% at maximum effort, really bad. Using switching technology, the efficiency can be kept around 70% , and can be higher for the lower input-output […]
