For serious high-voltage plasma, you need a serious transformer. [Jay Bowles] from Plasma Channel is taking his projects to the next level, so he built a beefy 6000:1 flyback transformer. [Jay ...

The flyback transformer needs a snubber circuit. Because much of the operation happens for duty factors greater than 50%, the circuit also requires slope compensation to ensure stability. If the ...

Flyback transformers are a great way to make a nice big electrical arc, but powering them isn’t that easy — or is it? First off, for those that may not know, ...

Full Flyback Transformer Spotlight We can now calculate the minimum primary turns Np; (See Equations ) Vp = 100V, t (the ON period of Q1) is 10µs, B max is 0.166 Tesla and Ae (the area of the ...

Design difficulties stem from the fact that flyback transformers aren't really transformers. More accurately, they're inductors or chokes, depending on the mode of operation.

Flyback transformers and converter efficiency. Make sure you take a look at a new feature on the site, regarding switching-converter topologies for power converters – Flyback transformer enables high ...

Aimed at smart metering applications, the MID-MHC series of flyback transformers from Wurth Electronics Midcom meets safety standards requiring high creepage and clearance, while reducing transformer ...

The flyback transformers tend to hold a charge, similar to that of a leyden jar. Its always a good idea and safety precaution to discharge them, even though its unlikely to be a lethal shock.

The HM210-05K060LFTR flyback transformer from TT Electronics is designed for use with Avago's ACPL-32JT/302J IGBT chipset. With its high level of isolation, the transformer is said to be optimised for ...

Applications for the Experimenting with Flyback Transformers Design Challenge are open now till 23 October, with participant selection on 27 October. Challengers must submit their projects and blogs ...
