The many virtues of flyback converter’s include being the lowest-cost isolated power converter, easily supplying multiple output voltages, a simple primary-side controller, and power delivery of up to ...

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 ...

Abstract: This article introduces an interleaved forward/flyback converter designed to achieve high power capability, bidirectional operation, galvanic isolation, and low ripple current. By ...

The quasi-resonant offline converter integrates a 700V gallium nitride (GaN) transistor and optimized gate driver with typical protection features, making wide-bandgap technology easily accessible to ...

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 ...

This Design Idea significantly improves conversion efficiency of externally driven flyback converter-based capacitor charging units intended for flash-lamp-pumped, pulsed solid-state laser sources. In ...

One trend that shows no size of ending is the move to smaller personal electronic devices. From smartphones to tablets, each successive generation is smaller and more powerful than the last. It’s ...

ST has added 65 Watt flyback converter in the VIPerGaN series that combines a 700V GaN transistor and quasi-resonant PWM control IC in a single QFN 5×6 package. VIPerGaN65W is aimed at cost-effective ...

When first starting an electronics project, it’s not uncommon to dive right in to getting the core parts of the project working. Breadboarding the project usually involves working with a benchtop ...
