This project demonstrates the design and development of an AC-to-DC converter circuit using KiCad, a free and open-source EDA tool. The converter takes standard 230 V AC mains input and outputs a ...

March 05, 2014 -- EasyEDA launches a free, zero-install, Web and cloud-based EDA tool suite, integrating powerful schematic capture, mixed-mode circuit simulation and PCB layout in a seamless ...

We see a lot of projects using Eagle for the schematics and PCB layout. There are a few that use Kicad, but we hear very little about other alternatives. Recently, [Limpkin] has been working with ...

THIEF RIVER FALLS, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Digi-Key, the industry leader in electronic component selection, availability and delivery, and Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ:MENT), the worldwide ...

A correct printed circuit board (PCB) layout is one of the most important aspects to having a successful power supply design. Non-isolated power stages are the basic building blocks of power systems.

Electrical power is supplied in two main forms: Alternating Current (AC) and Direct Current (DC). Understanding these two types of currents is essential before diving into the AC to DC conversion ...
