Flyback converters are widely used for applications with low power consumption. This topology is characterized by an isolation between its input and output. On cases when it is used on higher power ...

For the PDF version of this article, click here. When designing converters, it is often desirable to measure the dc current coming into the converter. This is particularly true when batteries are ...

Microprocessor-based devices require a regulated power-supply unit (PSU) that detects the loss of input power and continues to supply power for the length of time it takes to complete the process of ...

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 ...

As a solid state light source, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have been widely used due to their superior longevity, excellent efficacy, and friendly environmental attributes. Today, LEDs are replacing ...
