All power supplies require some type of feedback loop to regulate the output voltage. A simplified diagram of a buck controller is shown in Figure 1 with a pulse ...

Editor’s note: There is a great deal written about isolation, but Frederik Dostal gives us a look at power supply isolation. Do you know which side of the galvanic isolation to put the controller?

Switching power supplies rely on feedback control loops to ensure that the required voltage and current are maintained under varying load conditions. Design of the feedback control loop influences ...
