The SSC2001S, developed and released by Sanken since 2012, is a continuous conduction mode (CCM) control integrated circuit (IC) designed for power factor correction (PFC). This device has a low peak ...

For the PDF version of this article, click here. In last month's Power Design column, we examined the functional principles of continuous mode (or incomplete energy transfer mode) of a flyback ...

From our discussion in last month's Power Design column, we know that low cost and simplicity are the major advantages of the flyback topology. In multiple output applications, the addition of a ...

Control loops for power converters are complex and rely on the converter’s operation within a window of defined conditions. However, when converters operate outside these defined conditions, they can ...

Continuous manufacturing is finally gaining traction in the pharmaceutical industry, but development of the necessary production technologies is, fittingly, a continuous process. Ultimately, the drawn ...

Fueled by a need to reduce costs and improve efficiencies, continuous processing may be the next paradigm shift in pharmaceutical manufacturing. Although common in other process manufacturing ...
