Inductors can be found in many of the devices you use every day, but if you’ve been working only with DC in your projects there’s a good chance you’ve never needed to know anything about them. Now’s ...

The most ubiquitous power supply topology that manufacturers use today is the flyback topology. This article examines the choices made when designing a flyback power supply and explores the ...

Peter Green explains advantages of LED drivers based on the flyback power-supply topology: They're inexpensive; they provide an isolated output that complies with UL safety requirements; they make it ...

Which topology do you chose when your specification calls for a non-isolated power supply and the output voltage falls between the minimum and maximum input voltage? Is the tried-and-true flyback used ...

The choice between a flyback or single-ended primary inductance converter (SEPIC) topology often ends with the designer choosing the most familiar one, but that’s not always the right option, say John ...

Applications ranging from consumer electronics to high-power energy-conversion systems leverage the benefits of dc-dc power converters in their designs. Among these, flyback converters are popular for ...
