Bourns, Inc. has expanded its flyback power transformer line with the launch of the Bourns Model SM13117EL device. Designed to support IEEE 802.3 af-compliant, integrated Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) ...

In recent electronic devices, the demand for energy savings has become increasingly difficult to meet due to very stringent requirements such as high efficiency, low power dissipation, and reduced ...

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 ...

A common part used to create a high voltage is a CRT flyback transformer, having been a ubiquitous junk pile component. So many attempts to use them rely on brute force, with power transistors in ...

The most common type of power supply today is the switching supply. The most common type of power supply today is the switching supply. These units use pulse-width modulation (PWM) to regulate output.

As the demand for smaller form factors and higher energy efficiency for charger/adapter grows, the wide bandgap (WBG) device technology is gaining popularity. To use the potential of WBG and thus ...

Figure 1 shows the architecture of a conventional isolated flyback converter. These converters can be found frequently in power classes of up to about 60W. A supply voltage is converted to an output ...

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Designers of power supplies for All-In-One(AIO) applications are faced with the challenges of limited space, the need to meet worldwide energy regulations, as well ...

Here, Rich Miron, Applications Engineer at Digi-Key Electronics explores the operation of switch mode power supplies and explores make Vs. buy decision process for power supplies. Miron also ...

What’s the optimal power-conversion design? To find out, different topologies for mobile-device adapters and chargers were evaluated, and adapter performance using two power semi types were compared.
