Supercapacitors (SCs) generally operate at low voltages of about 2.7 V. To achieve higher operating voltages, it is necessary to build up a cascade of SC cells connected in series. Due to variations ...

Sometimes, those involved in IC design can get a very narrow view of their particular specialty area. This article, while covering some basics, aims to provide a global overview to everyone on the ...

Part 1 of this series focuses on high-performance electronic loads for testing power supplies that have low output voltage and high current. It describes the necessity for special electronic loads, ...
