A look at the design of a continuous mode flyback transformer - presenting one more example of the function of an air gap in a ferrite core. From our discussion in last month's Power Design column, we ...

The competition invites design engineers and enthusiasts to explore the world of flyback transformers, integral components used in switched-mode power supplies, converters, inverters, and more.

Flyback converters are widely used in isolated DC/DC applications because of their relative simplicity and low cost compared to alternative isolated topologies. Even so, designing a traditional ...

Isolated outputs are required for a broad range of DC/DC converter applications — far beyond the well-known telecom and datacom mandated isolation requirements. Isolation can be necessary for noise ...

Flyback converter technology remains pivotal in modern power electronics, offering a versatile solution for a broad range of applications from consumer electronics to industrial power supplies. Recent ...

In some circuits, galvanic isolation is necessary due to safety considerations. In other circuits, functional isolation is used to block any interference on signals. A galvanically isolated power ...

The transformer has primary to secondary isolation up to 7 kVdc. Typical applications include line and portable-medical devices, industrial lasers, ion generators, powder coating, painting equipment, ...

Here, Rich Miron, Applications Engineer at Digi-Key Electronics explores the operation of switch mode power supplies and explores make Vs. buy decision process for power supplies. Miron also ...

ROHM Co., Ltd. has developed a new reference design (REF67004) that uses a single MCU to control two commonly used power-converter types for consumer and industrial power supplies: critical-conduction ...
