A directional coupler is used to sample a small amount of input signal power for measurement purposes. Port 1 is the input port; port 2 is the output port; port 3 is the coupled port; port 4 is the ...

Even if you don’t have a Rohde Schwarz oscilloscope, you can still enjoy their recent video about using an oscilloscope to measure power supply efficiency. Of course, you don’t have to have a scope to ...

What you’ll learn: How oscilloscope-based packages improve bring-up, debugging, and validating power converters as well as help engineers achieve faster and more repeatable measurements. How analysis ...

Half-bridge series resonant converters achieve high efficiencies and high power densities for converters over 100 W. The most common resonant topology (Figure 1) is a resonant tank comprised of a ...
