Buck converters, as a fundamental class of DC–DC converters in power electronics, exhibit complex dynamical behaviours arising from their intrinsic switching operations. The interplay between ...

This course introduces more advanced concepts of switched-mode converter circuits. Realization of the power semiconductors in inverters or in converters having bidirectional power flow is explained.

Power supply company Pulsiv has developed a graphical technique – a nomogram – to determine critical transformer parameters for fly-back converters operating in discontinuous conduction mode. “This ...

Flyback converters can operate either in continuous-conduction mode (CCM) or discontinuous-conduction mode (DCM). For many low-power and low-current applications, though, the DCM flyback converter can ...
