Boost converters provide a higher output voltage from a lower input voltage. Getting the most “boost” possible requires maximizing the operational duty cycle. Boost controllers have a limit on their ...

[Ludic Science] shows us the basic principles that lie behind the humble boost converter. We all take them for granted, especially when you can make your own boost converter or buy one for only a few ...

The theory of boost converter operation. How to build boost converters using the SLG47105. Discover real-life examples where these devices can be used. DC-DC converters are widely used to efficiently ...

The impact of voltage gain on boost converters. The roles played by an inductor's load resistance and DCR. As an example, let’s look at an industrial application in which a voltage of 300 V should be ...

The MT3608 is a popular boost converter, able to easily step up DC voltages in useful ranges, at an incredibly low cost. Modules can be sourced from eBay for less than $2, built on a PCB, ready to go.

Boost converters are non-isolated DC-DC converters that step up voltage. In some applications, users expect protection against reverse polarity, short circuits, and other anomalous conditions. The ...
