Power supplies are the unsung heroes of electronic devices, ensuring that they receive the precise, stable, and clean DC voltages they need to function correctly. However, the magic behind these power supplies lies in the control and feedback system...

In the world of software-defined radio (SDR) and high-performance RF systems, properly configuring transceivers is essential for achieving optimal system performance. The ADRV9002 from Analog Devices is a versatile RF transceiver, but to fully h...

In the ever-evolving world of radio frequency (RF) communications, understanding the foundational concepts is essential for anyone looking to get into this field. The blog post "Basics in RF Communications: Modulation Schemes Part 1 of 7" s...

Multi-Chip Synchronization (MCS) is critical in high-performance RF systems where multiple transceiver chips must work in harmony. Whether you’re building a phased array radar or a multi-channel communication system, precise phase alignment bet...

We have come to the final destination in the SEPIC family. The journey started with a basic and fundamental SMPS. The beauty of the approach is the ability to see SEPIC, Cuk, and Zeta converters as part of a normal flow.  Figure 1: Basic flow of...

We have seen how the three fundamental schemes buck, boost, and inverter are built and perform, in the previous blog post. Each of these energy sources has inherent limitations that make them less suitable for applications powered by batteries o...

This is a step-by-step guide to setting up and running Kuiper Linux on the ZCU102 FPGA board, helping developers configure, deploy, and troubleshoot Linux on Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC devices. It covers building the Linux kernel and device tree from the...

Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI), Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C), and Improved Inter-Integrated Circuit (I3C) are critical for enabling communication between sensors, microcontrollers, memory devices, and other peripherals in countless applications....

Introduction  After understanding the inductive switched mode power supply’s (SMPS) position within the vast landscape of energy converters, we embark on the next leg of our journey toward SEPIC. Along this path, we encounter the fundamen...
