  2. Buck converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buck_converter

    A buck converter or step-down converter is a DC-to-DC converter which decreases voltage, while increasing current, from its input to its output . It is a class of switched-mode power supply . Switching converters (such as buck converters) provide much greater power efficiency as DC-to-DC converters than linear regulators , which are simpler ...

  3. Chopper (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chopper_(electronics)

    Taking a general buck-boost chopper which works as stepup and down chopper, let the voltage source be in series with the chopper switch, reverse biased diode, and the load with voltage . The inductor would be in parallel with the series diode and load.

  4. Buck–boost converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buck–boost_converter

    The buck–boost converter is a type of DC-to-DC converter that has an output voltage magnitude that is either greater than or less than the input voltage magnitude. It is equivalent to a flyback converter using a single inductor instead of a transformer. [1] Two different topologies are called buck–boost converter. Both of them can produce a ...

  5. DC-to-DC converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC-to-DC_converter

    Step-down A converter where the output voltage is lower than the input voltage (such as a buck converter). Step-up A converter that outputs a voltage higher than the input voltage (such as a boost converter). Continuous current mode Current and thus the magnetic field in the inductive energy storage never reaches zero. Discontinuous current mode

  6. Switched-mode power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched-mode_power_supply

    This boost converter acts like a step-up transformer for DC signals. A buck–boost converter works in a similar manner, but yields an output voltage which is opposite in polarity to the input voltage. Other buck circuits exist to boost the average output current with a reduction of voltage.

  7. Boost converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boost_converter

    A boost converter or step-up converter is a DC-to-DC converter that increases voltage, while decreasing current, from its input to its output . It is a class of switched-mode power supply (SMPS) containing at least two semiconductors, a diode and a transistor , and at least one energy storage element: a capacitor , inductor , or the two in ...

  8. Flyback converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flyback_converter

    Fig. 1: Schematic of a flyback converter. The flyback converter is used in both AC/DC, and DC/DC conversion with galvanic isolation between the input and any outputs. The flyback converter is a buck-boost converter with the inductor split to form a transformer, so that the voltage ratios are multiplied with an additional advantage of isolation.

  9. Glossary of power electronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_power_electronics

    buck converter step-down converter A direct DC converter providing an output voltage which is lower than the input voltage. by-pass arm An auxiliary arm providing a conductive path which allows the current to circulate without an interchange of power between source and load.
