Tripler Converts 5 to 15V: 08/17/00 EDN-Design Ideas / (added 1/06)
By configuring a charge-pump voltage doubler as a tripler, you can readily derive 15V
from 5V (Figure 1). A 15V rail is useful for powering op amps, LCD-bias circuits and
other low-current applications. The connections shown configure the IC1 voltage
doubler as a tripler. The no-load output voltage of the circuit is approximately
3VIN–2VD, where VD is the voltage drop across one diode. Use Schottky diodes as shown
to minimize VD and its effect on output voltage. Because the circuit's finite output
impedance causes the output voltage to drop with load current (Figure 2), a practical
limit for load current is approximately 30 mA. (DI #2570)... |

Tripler Converts 5 Volt to 15V: Maxim Application Note #297 (app note added
7/03) By configuring a charge-pump voltage doubler as a tripler, you can readily
derive 15V from 5V (Figure 1). A 15V rail is useful for powering op amps, LCD-bias
circuits, and other low-current applications. The connections shown configure the IC1
voltage doubler as a tripler. The no-load output voltage of the circuit is
approximately 3VIN -2VD, where VD is the voltage drop across one diode. Use Schottky
diodes as shown to minimize VD and its effect on output voltage. Because the circuit's
finite output impedance causes the output voltage to drop with load current (Figure
2), a practical limit for load current is approximately 30mA. |

Two Channel Gate Driver for Large IGBT Modules: The BG2A is a fully isolated
two channel gate drive circuit designed for use with dual IGBT modules. The BG2A
utilizes Powerex VLA500-01 or VLA502-01 hybrid gate drivers to provide efficient
switching of modules rated up to 1400A. The hybrid gate driver features a built-in
high speed opto-coupler, short circuit protection and an isolated DC to DC converter
with 2500VRMS isolation. (added 3/05) |

UCC3809 Evaluation Module: The UCC3809EVM evaluation module is an isolated
10-W, 3.3-V converter designed for telecom input voltages, nominally -48 Vdc, but
ranging from -32 Vdc to -75 Vdc. The UCC3809 economy primary-side controller is used
as the pulse-width modulator (PWM), combined with a TLV431 low-voltage
adjustable-precision shunt regulator on the secondary side. The nominal switching
frequency for this converter is approximately 400 kHz. The UCC3809 is configured with
a 50% duty-cycle clamp. (added 3/05) |

Use a 555 Timer as a Switch Mode Power Supply: 11/14/02 EDN Design Ideas
/ (added 1/05) Most switch-mode power supplies rely on a PWM
(pulse-width-modulated) output that is controlled via voltage feedback. A 555-timer IC
can inexpensively perform PWM. The circuit in Figure 1 shows how to turn a 555 PWM
circuit into an switch-mode power supply with only one simple equation. The design
uses two 555s.... |
