DC-DC Converter
＜What is a DC-DC Converter?＞
As its name implies, a DC-DC converter converts one DC voltage to another.
The operating voltage of different electronic devices such as ICs can vary over a wide range, making it necessary to provide a voltage for each device.
A Buck Converter outputs a lower voltage than the original voltage, while a Boost Converter supplies a higher voltage.
Linear or Switching Regulators
DC-DC converters are also referred to as linear or switching regulators, depending on the method used for conversion.
- Device for converting to a lower voltage
- Buck or Step-Down converter
- Device for converting to a higher voltage
- Boost or Step-Up Converter
- Device capable of converting to a higher or lower voltage
- Boost-Buck Converter
- Device for supplying a negative voltage
- Negative Voltage or Inverting Converter
