This report describes a universal input 5 V, 300 mA non-isolated flyback power supply which is designed with LNK584DG device from the LinkZero-AX family of ICs. It contains the complete specification ...

This application note explains the key steps in designing two of the most important components in a flyback converter – the transformer and the snubber resistor. Flyback converters are very popular ...

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 ...

In PoE systems, performance of the flyback converter used to step down the 48-V supply in the powered device depends on careful transformer design. A growing number of electronic devices require both ...

If you’d like to build a Jacob’s ladder, an ignition system for a flamethrower, or for some ungodly reason you need 15 kilovolts for a prop replica or cosplay build, this one is for you. It’s an easy ...

Silanna Semiconductor has designed an active clamp fly-back controller to reduce the operational, no-load and stand-by power consumption chargers and adapters. Called SZ1131, it has an integrated ...

While switch-mode power supplies operate at frequencies well above the range of human hearing, they can produce audible noise under certain load conditions. Potential sources of audible noise can vary ...

Power Integrations has announced the fifth generation of its InnoSwitch isolated fly-back ac-dc converter ICs, which removes the need for primary-side active clamping when operated in zero-voltage ...

[Ladyada] is working on a tutorial series covering power supplies. If you’ve ever built an electronic project you’ve used some type of power supply but we think that most people have no idea how you ...
