SMPS Design: Load Sharing Issues – Video Tutorial

The video below explains us about the load sharing issues in SMPS (switched mode power supply) design. This video tell us that load sharing connects the load with more Power Supply together to empower the load. Usually there more modules with more total power capability that required by the system. If one power module failed, remaining module continue to supply […]

SMPS Design: Power Supply Sequencing – Video Tutorial

Mini electronic devices require multiple supply voltages to protect their circuitry. If this  supply voltage are improperly applied, it can resulting distracted process where internal conduction junction become biased, resulting an uncontrolled current flow. There are 4 methods of Power Supply sequencing. There are simultaneous, sequential, ratio metric and offset. We have to chose the method that meets system requirement.

SMPS Design: EMI Filtering – Video Tutorial

This is EMI Filtering video. This video explained us about EMI Filtering, EMI Filtering Element, and EMI Filtering Leakage Currents. In this video, conducted mode RFI limit is illustrated on the diagram. On that diagram, the RFI has fix bandwidth. It’s claimed 9 KHz wide when scanning from 150KHz to 30MH and turning 20H when scanning below 150KHz. EMI filtering […]

Thermoelectric Heat Pump for Laser Diodes Stabilization

Usually, semiconductor laser diodes are operated from current drives. Unfortunately, The output power is strongly dependent on the device temperature – a rise of 15° causes a fall in optical power of (typically) 17% for a given current. Using a feedback loop and monitor the output beam intensity using photodiode is one method to stabilizing the operating condition. Not an […]

LM3404 Constant Ripple LED Driver

To take an input voltage of 24VDC ±10% and drive 1A through as many LEDs in series as the maximum output will allow, the circuit shown in the schematic diagram below uses the ONO-based constant ripple concept. The average current controls the luminous flux and dominant wavelength (or color temperature for white LEDs). Because the constant-ripple LED driver fixes the […]
