Design of switching power transformers can be accomplished in a relatively simple manner by limiting magnetic configurations to a few core and coilform structures. These structures have been chosen ...

Designing flyback transformers for switch-mode power supplies involves many calculations. A spreadsheet can make short work of this otherwise-tedious task. When you develop flyback power supplies, ...

The flyback design is a switched-mode power supply (SMPS) that’s been used for 70+ years and still going strong. This supply—also called a power converter—has two distinct operating phases, with power ...

A new type of DC-DC converter based on Hybrid-switching Method™ and a novel Hybrid Transformer™ enables a high step-down voltage conversion and provides a regulated output voltage of 1V from a 48V ...

Distribution transformers must adhere to NEC and NFPA 70 standards, with specific requirements for overcurrent protection, ...

This course covers the analysis and design of magnetic components, including inductors and transformers, used in power electronic converters. This course assumes prior completion of ECEA 5700: ...

Magnetic components, particularly transformers operating at high frequencies and voltages, are intrinsically influenced by parasitic capacitance. This unintended capacitance between conductive ...

The most common type of power supply today is the switching supply. These units use pulse-width modulation (PWM) to regulate output. Supplies today employ several different PWM circuit configurations.
