When developing TOPSwitch flyback power supplies, transformer design is usually the biggest stumbling block. Flyback transformers are not designed or used like normal transformers. Energy is stored in ...

This application note is a design and construction guide for margin wound or triple insulated wire wound flyback transformers suitable for use with TOPSwitch. Margin wound and triple insulated wire ...

China is emerging as a large manufacturer of CRT-based TV components, says Daniel Yang in iSuppli’s "Market Watch—China," (March 31, 2003, Vol. 2). He notes that the rapid growth of China’s color TV ...

Numerous applications can’t operate in low-voltage ranges due to the physical reality of their situation. For these installations, a converter such as the Analog Devices LT8316 600 V IN isolated ...

The pulse-edge transformer (PET) is used as a medium to transmit PWM pulses from a secondary-side controller, such as EZ-PD™ PAGxS, to a primary-side controller, such as EZ-PD™ PAGxP, for AC/DC ...

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 ...

[Matt] works at a neon sign power supply company. When a vendor error left him with quite a few defective high voltage transformers, he couldn’t bring himself to ...

As the demand for smaller form factors and higher energy efficiency for charger/adapter grows, the wide bandgap (WBG) device technology is gaining popularity. To use the potential of WBG and thus ...

A common part used to create a high voltage is a CRT flyback transformer, having been a ubiquitous junk pile component. So many attempts to use them rely on brute force, with power transistors in ...
