2. Split-pi topology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-pi_topology

   The split-pi converter is a type of DC-to-DC converter that has an output voltage magnitude either greater than or less than the input voltage magnitude. It is a switched-mode power supply with a similar circuit configuration to a boost converter followed by a buck converter. Split-pi gets its name from the pi circuit due to the use of two pi ...

   Mechanism for regenerative brake on the roof of a Škoda Astra tram The S7/8 Stock on the London Underground can return around 20% of its energy usage to the power supply. [1] Regenerative braking is an energy recovery mechanism that slows down a moving vehicle or object by converting its kinetic energy or potential energy into a form that can ...

4. DC-to-DC converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC-to-DC_converter

   DC-to-DC converters are used in portable electronic devices such as cellular phones and laptop computers, which are supplied with power from batteries primarily. Such electronic devices often contain several sub-circuits, each with its own voltage level requirement different from that supplied by the battery or an external supply (sometimes higher or lower than the supply voltage).

5. Regulated power supply - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulated_power_supply

   A regulated power supply is an embedded circuit; it converts unregulated AC (alternating current) into a constant DC. With the help of a rectifier it converts AC supply into DC. Its function is to supply a stable voltage (or less often current), to a circuit or device that must be operated within certain power supply limits.
