A PCB Mount Current Transformer is a specialized electrical component designed to measure alternating current (AC) by integrating directly onto a printed circuit board (PCB). Unlike traditional ...

step-down transformers decrease the voltage. The transformer in the diagram above is a step-down transformer – there are fewer turns on the secondary coil than on the primary coil. Type of transformer ...

Maybe I'm describing a unicorn device here but I have a bunch of devices that run off DC-in of various voltages, and take a barrel jack connector for power. They all have their own wall warts but I've ...

In this article, we discuss the basic operation and design of a Fly-Buck™ converter. This discussion also includes a detailed explanation about the control and regulation of this converter. The ...

The low cost, simplicity of design and intrinsic efficiency of flyback transformers have made them a popular solution for power supply designs of below 100W to 150W. Other advantages of the flyback ...

Last month's Code Calculations article covered transformer calculation definitions and some specifics of delta transformer calculations. This month we turn our attention to the differences between ...
