How to build a smarter ultra-wide DC-DC converter

Supplied by Vicor Corporation on Monday, 25 March, 2019


Finding DC-DC converters with ultra-wide voltage inputs (>5:1 VIN to VOUT ratio) can present a challenge. Some applications require input voltage ranges that extend well beyond what most DC-DC converters can accept.

Learn how to design an ultra-wide DC-DC converter using multiple parts and maximise your efficiency and power density.
