OXFORD, UK, March 16th 2011 – RS Components, Texas Instruments and Biricha Digital Power have today announced a series of free Digital Power Supply ‘Lunch & Learn’ seminars being held around the UK during March and April.
The one day technical seminars are aimed at both Analogue Power Engineers and Embedded Systems Engineers with an interest in the benefits of digital power in their power supply applications. The sessions are from 10:00 to 16:00 and are being held at the following dates and locations:
- 22 March RS Components Ltd Bristol
- 24 March Texas Instruments Reading
- 29 March Cambridge Consultants Cambridge
- 31 March TRW Conekt Solihull
- 05 April Texas Instruments Manchester

Each day starts with an introduction to digital power and covers digital power design guidelines, converting analogue controllers to digital and ensuring stability in digital power supplies. Presentations are supported by demonstrations, and the day includes a tutorial from TI and Biricha offering individual input on engineers own designs. A Q&A session wraps up each day.
The seminar is also an ideal precursor to Biricha’s 3-day Digital Power Design Workshop taking place in Reading in July for which all seminar attendees will receive 20% discount as well as substantial discounts on TI’s digital power development tools purchased through RS.
Commenting, Mark Patrick, Marketing Insight Manager for RS Components said, “We are delighted to be able to work with TI and Biricha on this seminar programme. Through DesignSpark, our online community and free design resource centre for engineers, we have seen a growing appetite for learning events like these. With the expertise provided by our event partners, the seminars will be an excellent experience for any analogue or embedded systems engineer.”
