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 ...

According to Texas Instruments, its latest high-density isolated DC-DC modules with integrated transformers shrink isolated bias power supplies in automotive and industrial systems by close to 90%.

Isolated power supply is a main requirement in every industrial application where modules are connected to Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC). Often, for those PLC modules there is only limited ...

Designing flyback transformers for switch-mode power supplies involves many calculations. A spreadsheet can make short work of this otherwise-tedious task. When you develop flyback power supplies, ...

It’s not just red tape that’s limiting the supply of electricity in America. Grids are physical machines, and they’re short ...

Paige Hookway speaks with Sven Krumpel, Project Manager ICs & Transformer at RECOM Power about RECOM's product expansion.

It is important for machine design engineers to understand how transformers work so they can design machinery that operates optimally within the proper voltage ranges, as well as select the right ...

When reaching for a power supply design it’s normal here in 2022 to reach for a switching design. They’re lightweight, very efficient, and often available off-the-shelf at reasonable prices. Their ...

The North American power sector is at an inflection point. Ambitious grid modernization plans, coupled with the explosive growth of solar substation transformer and data center substation transformer ...
