Not sure what separates AC from DC power? This beginner-friendly guide breaks down the differences in how they flow, work, and power your world.

This AC to DC converter circuit is capable of converting an alternative voltage within 70V – 260V range into a DC voltage within 180V to 350V DC range, so it can be used for 110V and 220V too. To ...

The folks over at Toymaker Television have put together another episode. This time they’re looking at bridge rectifiers and how they’re used in AC to DC converters. This is a simple con… ...

A power tip that discusses how to address highly integrated USB PD charger design constraints with a self-biasing circuit.

While the voltage in an AC keeps alternating between positive and negative, the voltage in a DC is the same or constant. How does AC and DC affect electric vehicles?

Famously, Nikola Tesla won the War of the Currents in the early days of electrification because his AC system could use transformers to minimize losses for long distance circuits. That was well ...

Wondering if phone chargers use AC or DC power? Learn the difference, how chargers work, and why it matters for your device’s safety.

The phone and laptop chargers convert AC to DC in order to recharge the battery. Appliances that need to control the current and voltage tightly mostly use DC power.
