In this episode of Chalk Talk, Mohammad Mohiuddin from Eaton and Amelia Dalton explore the fundamentals of DC-DC conversion, the benefits of the different types of converter architectures and how technologies like gallium nitride, silicon carbide, traditional silicon MOSFETs, and IGBTs compare when it comes to efficiency, switching speed, and power density. They also investigate key design tradeoffs engineers face when selecting power solutions, and look ahead to the future of DC-DC conversion — including AI-optimized power management, miniaturization, modular power systems, and next-generation high-efficiency designs.
