Abstract—This paper describes a classification of paralleling schemes for dc–dc converters from a circuit theoretic viewpoint. The purpose is to provide a systematic classification of the types of parallel converters that can clearly identify all possible structures and control configurations

The NCP1562 PWM controller contains all the features and flexibility needed to implement an active clamp forward dc−dc converter. This IC operates from an input supply up to 150 V, thus covering the input voltages usually found in

Abstract—This paper presents a single-inductor multipleoutput (SIMO) converter operating in pseudo-continuous conduction mode (PCCM) and/or discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). With the proposed freewheel switching control, this converter can handle large load currents with a much smaller current

This thesis develops a spread spectrum switching system for DC-DC converters operating in burst mode. Burst mode DC-DC converters have high efficiency under low-power conditions in applications such as cell phones and notebook computers, but often produce noise in the audible range. This thesis

Dc-dc converters suitable for use i n battery-powered electronic equipment with energy management are discussed. To realize the benefits of energy management, these converters must be capable of maintaining regulation of their output voltages at no load, while maintaining high efficiency. Variable

This paper proposes S-MAC, a medium access control (MAC) protocol designed for wireless sensor networks. Wireless sensor networks use battery-operated computing and sensing devices. A network of these devices will collaborate for a common application such as environmental monitoring. We expect

Many systems require that the primary source of DC power be converted to other voltages. Battery driven circuitry is an obvious candidate. The 6V or 12V cell in a laptop computer must be converted to different potentials needed for

Abstract—A cost-effective thermal compensation technique for CMOS digital integrated circuits (ICs) is proposed. The technique features a temperature-adaptive DC-DC converter, serving as both temperature detector and variable power supply. The converter adopts a delay-line based analog

This book presents a unified treatment of many different kinds of planning algorithms. The subject lies at the crossroads between robotics, control theory, artificial intelligence, algorithms, and computer graphics. The particular subjects covered include motion planning, discrete planning

the discussion of interference temperature as a new metric for the quantification and management of interference, the paper addresses three fundamental cognitive tasks. 1) Radio-scene analysis. 2) Channel-state estimation and predictive modeling. 3) Transmit-power control and dynamic spectrum management
