- Single-ended primary-inductor converter
Image SEPIC Schematic.gif thumb 500px right Figure 1 Schematic of SEPIC Single ended primary inductor converter SEPIC is a type of DC to DC converter DC DC converter allowing the electrical potential voltage at its output to be greater than, less than, or equal to that at its input the output of the SEPIC is controlled by the duty cycle of the control transistor. A SEPIC is similar to a traditional buck boost converter , but has advantages of having non inverted output the output voltage is of the same polarity as the input voltage , the isolation between its input and output provided by a capacitor in series , and true shutdown mode when the switch is turned off, its output drops to 0  V. SEPICs are useful in applications in which a battery voltage can be above and below that of the regulator s intended output. For example, a single lithium ion battery typically discharges from 4.2 volts to 3 volts if other components require 3.3 volts, then the SEPIC would be effective. Circuit operation The Circuit diagram schematic diagram for a basic SEPIC is shown in Figure 1. As with other switched mode power supply switched mode power supplies specifically DC to DC converter s , the SEPIC exchanges energy between the capacitor s and inductor s in order to DC to DC converter convert from one voltage to another.

- Self-resonant frequency
Refimprove date November 2006 In electronics , capacitor s and inductor s have parasitic inductance and parasitic capacitance capacitance , respectively. For a capacitor, the inductance is primarily due to the physical dimensions including the leads. The lead inductance can be calculated using the equation Ldc 2L ln 2L r 0.75 nH where Ldc is the low frequency or DC inductance in nano henries, L is the wire length in cm, and r is the wire radius in cm. ref Electromechanics A First Course in Electromechanical Energy Conversion, Hugh Hildreth Skilling, ISBN 0882757946 ref Since a capacitor and inductor in series creates an electronic oscillator oscillating circuit , all capacitors and inductors will oscillate when stimulated with a step impulse . The frequency of this oscillation is the self resonant frequency SRF . Inductors have both inductive and capacitance tendencies. SRF is the frequency, typically rated in MegaHertz MHz , that an inductor takes on enough of the capacitive tendencies that they cancel out the inductive tendencies, thus rendering this device useless as an inductor. At this frequency the inductor acts purely resistive and above this frequency will begin to act like a capacitor. A capacitor or inductor behaves ideally only when its working frequency is well below the self resonant frequency. As its working frequency increases, the effects of the parasitic inductance or capacitance became more pronounced until its self resonant frequency, when the effective capacitance or inductance is zero since it is canceled by its counterpart. This number is commonly published for each capacitor or inductor by the manufacturer. British electronics engineer Ivor Catt controversially argues against the existence of a self resonant frequency for capacitors. ref name Capacitor Self Resonant Frequency http www.ivorcatt.co.uk 26031.htm Ivor Catt on self resonant frequency ref References Reflist DEFAULTSORT Self Resonant Frequency Category Electronics terms Electron stub ... more details

- Dot convention
Unreferenced date December 2009 In circuit analysis, the dot convention is a Convention norm convention used to denote the voltage Polarity physics polarity of two mutual inductance mutually inductive components, such as winding on a transformer . The Electrical polarity polarity of all dotted terminals will be the same at any particular time, assuming an ideal transformer with no leakage inductance . Image Mutual inductance.PNG Sinusoidal AC For sinusoidal AC such as the mains, the convention can be thought of in either of the following ways The Electric current current going into one dot either dot tries to come out the other dot. Into meaning from the dot toward the inductor , and conversely out meaning from the inductor toward the dot. Current going into a dotted terminal of the inductor induces a positive voltage at the other dot. Conversely, current leaving a dotted terminal induces a negative voltage at the other dot.

- Capacitor-input filter
refimprove date April 2010 The capacitor input filter , also called pi filter due to its shape that looks like the Greek alphabet Greek letter pi letter pi , is a type of electronic filter . Filter circuits are used to remove unwanted or undesired frequencies from a signal. Image Capacitor input filter.svg A typical capacitor input filter consists of a filter capacitor C1, connected across the rectifier output, an inductor L, in series and another filter capacitor, C2, connected across the load, RL. A filter of this sort is designed for use at a particular frequency, generally fixed by the AC line frequency and rectifier configuration. When used in this service, filter performance is often characterized by its Voltage regulation regulation and Ripple electrical ripple . The capacitor C1 offers low Reactance electronics reactance to the AC component of the rectifier output while it offers infinite reactance to the DC component. As a result the capacitor shunts an appreciable amount of the AC component while the DC component continues its journey to the inductor L The inductor L offers high reactance to the AC component but it offers almost zero reactance to the DC component. As a result the DC component flows through the inductor while the AC component is blocked. The capacitor C2 bypasses the AC component which the inductor had failed to block. As a result only the DC component appears across the load RL.
