Peculiar oscillation in LMR23630 buck when it drops out of regulation
Hi, all, Sort of a strange one. Our class-H thermoelectric cooler driver uses an LMR23630 sync buck regulator running off +5V and ground, synched to a 2.156 MHz clock, and with a buffered PWM...

Ultra-efficient bucks
I have been recently working on my current-fed converter. Its only advantage is that it works, but not exactly as advertised. This circuit deserves a separate autopsy thread, but the scope for some...
