TL494 High Power High Efficiency Buck Converter Circuit High Power High Efficiency Buck Converter Circuit using TL494

A buck converter circuit (step-down converter) is a DC-to-DC switching converter that steps down voltage while maintaining a constant power balance. The main feature of a buck converter is efficiency, which means that with a buck converter on board, we can expect extended battery life, reduced heat, smaller size, and improved efficiency. We previously made a few simple Buck…

Buck Boost Regulator using XL6009 Buck Boost Regulator using XL6009 with Adjustable 3.3V to 12V Output Voltage

Buck-Boost regulator is made using two different topologies, as the name suggests, it consists of both buck and boost topology. We already know that Buck Regulator Topology provides a lower magnitude of output voltage than the input voltage, while a Boost Regulator Topology provides a higher magnitude of output voltage than the provided input voltage. We have already built a…
