https://www.electronics-lab.com/36v-operation-coil-integrated-step-dc-dc-converters/
Torex Semiconductor Ltd. has launched the XDL605/XDL606 series of AEC-Q100 compliant, ultra-small step-down “micro DC/DC” converters which have an integrated coil and control IC. A DC/DC converter power supply circuit can be constructed simply by adding a ceramic capacitor and a resistance for voltage setting to the external components, which can contribute to substantially reducing […]
50V to 5V @7A Synchronous Buck (Step-down) Converter
https://www.electronics-lab.com/project/50v-5v-7a-synchronous-buck-step-converter/
This module is a non-isolated 7A DC-DC converter. The module can convert any DC voltage between 7V to 50V to a 5V DC with load current up to 7A. The project has been designed around LM5116 Wide Range Synchronous Buck Controller IC. The design includes 6uH toroid inductor and two N channel MOSFETS. The operating […]

Free Elektor Circuit: Magic Key
https://www.electronics-lab.com/free-elektor-circuit-magic-key/
An infra-red remote control for an (electromagnetically operated) lock? Nothing special, you will think. But some umpteen years ago this looked like magic, and it was very satisfying to build something like that yourself. Even if it was only to amaze the neighbors. Here you can see how it was achieved, using only a small […]
