The use of a snubber circuit to damp the voltage ringing stemming from parasitic oscillation in switching voltage regulators (VRs) is often not an option. The components for this circuitry must be ...

The critical role of snubber circuits in minimizing ringing and overshoot. How snubber circuitry is evolving to adapt to trends in power electronics, like the rising interest in wide-bandgap ...

The Power Switches are the heart of every power converter. Their operation will directly determine the reliability and efficiency of the product. To enhance the performance of the switching circuit of ...

A snubber circuit limits voltage spikes in power converters. Snubbers are also used in the output of Class-D audio amplifiers for the same reasons (Fig. 1). When the transistor you use to switch the ...

Melexis is creating all-silicon RC snubbers for integrating within silicon carbide power modules. Currently sampling to potential customers, the parts will all be variants of the new part number ...
