Pulsiv Limited, the Cambridge (UK) power electronics innovator, has announced the availability from stock of its Pulsiv OSMIUM microcontrollers through global electronic components distributor, DigiKey.

Using a patented switching technique, Pulsiv has developed an entirely new method for converting AC to DC, reducing the overall energy wasted by mains powered devices or battery chargers. This unique technology has been specifically designed to help cut global CO2 emissions, deliver long-term sustainability, and achieve net zero targets.

Pulsiv OSMIUM has extended the range of conventional flyback topologies to replace more expensive LLC solutions, while achieving an unrivalled efficiency profile. It further helps manufacturers comply with the latest regulatory standards, including the EU’s Ecodesign Directive.

Various tools are available to simplify the engineering process including:

• AC to DC front-end circuit design configurations

• Front-end evaluation boards that can be paired with a preferred DC-DC converter

• Reference designs that include a Pulsiv OSMIUM front-end design with a pre-optimised DC-DC converter

• Expert design support to assist in optimising the technology for various applications
