Abstract: A novel, single-phase soft-switched boost AC-DC rectifier that operates with power-factor correction is proposed in this paper. The rectifier is a modified boost voltage-doubler converter ...

Abstract: AC-DC rectifier and storage capacitors take up 25% or more of chip area for cost-sensitive passive RFID tags. In this work, we show that these components can be eliminated by utilizing a ...

Left panel, superconducting rectifier circuit used to convert AC currents into DC using four superconducting diodes (blue) connected by superconducting interconnects and one smoothing capacitor (C ...

and rectifiers, consolidating several AC/DC and DC/DC conversion steps in the process to maximize efficiency and reliability. As such, this architecture would reduce the thickness of copper wires ...

Navitas Semiconductor is overvalued after a recent price surge, with my fair value estimate at $2.30 per share—62% below current levels. While NVTS has impressive technology and a promising ...
