Cooking food with fire is arguably the technology that propelled humans to become the dominant species on Earth. It’s pretty straightforward to achieve, just requiring a fuel source, a supply of ...

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 ...

In this article, we discuss the basic operation and design of a Fly-Buck™ converter. This discussion also includes a detailed explanation about the control and regulation of this converter. The ...

Using a flyback topology to generate a high voltage is a common approach. The voltage can charge a capacitor for a high-energy pulse. Such an approach is used in defibrillator capacitors, photoflash ...

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 ...
