Primary concerns with battery-operated devices include battery protection from inrush and short circuit currents caused by connected load, and load protection from voltage spikes when battery load ...
When a DC/DC converter is connected to the input voltage source, it causes a large peak inrush current as a result of the application of the high dv/dt to the filter capacitance. These filter ...
Designed to continuously monitor and control inrush current, while providing voltage regulation, the CAT3200-5 and CAT3200 output charge pumps utilize a constant switching frequency of 2 MHz that ...
At a power-on cycle, inrush current, if not limited, can peak to tens of even hundreds of amps when capacitive load is present, thereby increasing the probability of failure and decreasing usable ...
