The use of a snubber circuit to damp the voltage ringing stemming from parasitic oscillation in switching voltage regulators (VRs) is often not an option. The components for this circuitry must be ...
High-voltage transient spikes generated during power conversion or gate-drive switching can be very harmful. In a motor-drive application, voltage derivation over time (dV/dt) transients may break the ...
A snubber circuit limits voltage spikes in power converters. Snubbers are also used in the output of Class-D audio amplifiers for the same reasons (Fig. 1). When the transistor you use to switch the ...
