Marotta Controls today announced the award of U.S. Patent No. 12,283,877 for a novel synchronous rectification technique developed by Joseph Youssef, Marotta’s Senior Director, Electrical Engineering.

Synchronous rectifiers are MOSFETs, driven in such a way as to perform a rectifying function. They often take the place of diodes in the output-rectification stage of switching power converters, ...

ST has introduced a pair of autonomous secondary-side synchronous-rectification controllers for fly-back converters, suitable for quasi-resonant and continuous-discontinuous conduction fixed frequency ...

Maximizing energy efficiency and power density have now become requirements for power supply designs in low power chargers and adapters. It has become necessary for synchronous rectification (SR) to ...
