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 ...

For utilities, proper protection against high voltage transient overvoltages and overloads is critical to ensure maximum life of their power transformers. Failure to do so can result in significant ...

Planar transformers have been around for many years, and I have often wondered why they are not used more frequently. These usually SMT devices have a distinct density advantage and a high-frequency ...

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Global Switch Mode Power Supply Transformers Market By Type (AC to DC, DC to DC, DC to AC and AC to DC), By End User (Consumer Electronics, Communications, Industrial and ...

The demand for smaller, lighter, and more efficient AC/DC USB power delivery (PD) chargers is always a challenge for power-supply design engineers. Below 100 W, the quasi-resonant flyback is still the ...

One of the most dangerous locations in a power distribution system with regard to incident energy is that first panelboard on the secondary of a transformer. With some thought in your design — even if ...

Topology that is result of the project provides a possibility of achieving maximum physically attainable level of energy that can be received from a ferromagnetic transformer. Specified inverter is ...

It is important for machine design engineers to understand how transformers work so they can design machinery that operates optimally within the proper voltage ranges, as well as select the right ...

Are the benefits of digital integrated power transformers worth it? Smart transformers with exciting new technologies like Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI) are among the next ...
