The two most common forms of control in dc/dc switching power converters are CM (current-mode) and VM (voltage-mode) control. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages. CM control provides ...

Current‐mode amplifiers have emerged as a highly efficient alternative to traditional voltage‐mode systems, particularly in high frequency and low power electronic applications. Their ability to ...

Current‐mode all‐pass filters represent a crucial class of signal processing circuits that, by utilising current signals rather than voltage signals, offer inherent advantages in terms of integration, ...

For the PDF version of this article, click here. Over the years, power supply designers have been persuaded that current mode is superior to its voltage-mode counterpart. As a result, the major PWM ...

Fig 1. The buck converter schematic shows the voltage feedback loop and the fast peak CMC loop. The current waveform as seen by the shunt is the dominant signal at the ramp of the PWM comparator. Fig ...

Pyroelectric detectors have become a staple in the IR industry for countless applications and for good reasons; pyroelectrics are cheap, reliable, and sensitive enough for applications ranging from ...

The UC1846 control IC provides all of the necessary features to implement fixed-frequency, current-mode control schemes, while maintaining a minimum external parts count. The superior performance of ...
