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 ...

Several switching-converter topologies exist for power converters that operate from the ac mains and must maintain a power factor of 0.9 or better. One topology is a boost converter with a control ...

Aimed at smart metering applications, the MID-MHC series of flyback transformers from Wurth Electronics Midcom meets safety standards requiring high creepage and clearance, while reducing transformer ...

With the LT6813, designers can build an optoisolator-free power controller that delivers from 20- to 600-V dc output up to 100 W using an updated version of the long-established “flyback” principle.

For the PDF version of this article, click here. In last month's Power Design column, we examined the functional principles of continuous mode (or incomplete energy transfer mode) of a flyback ...

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.

The HM210-05K060LFTR flyback transformer from TT Electronics is designed for use with Avago's ACPL-32JT/302J IGBT chipset. With its high level of isolation, the transformer is said to be optimised for ...

In this article, I'll show you how to built a Wireless Transfer of Energy Transmitter. Simply put, this device will send electricity to a florescent light bulb and light it up, from up to three feet.

In this article, I'll show you how to build a simplistic circuit to generate negative ions. Negative ions have been known to contribute to fresher air, happier mood, and general health benefits.

[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 ...
