For example, when a motor is is being driven by MOSFETs in an H-bridge circuit everything is fine. But when the current to the motor is stopped, the collapsing magnetic field of the inductor will ...

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 ...

Now that the green revolution is firmly entrenched, power supply designers have successfully brought to market many innovative techniques for reducing power loss. These techniques usually come with ...

Linear Technology’s LT3809 flyback secondary-side synchronous rectifier driver replaces the output diode forward-voltage drop with the RDS(ON) of an external N-channel MOSFET, thus reducing the power ...

The transition from diodes to synchronous-rectification (SR) MOSFETs in secondary circuits of flyback converters increases with each new generation of MOSFETs, improving performance at little or no ...

Inductors can be found in many of the devices you use every day, but if you’ve been working only with DC in your projects there’s a good chance you’ve never needed to know anything about them. Now’s ...

• Electric brakes and clutches operated directly from PLCs frequently lack proper suppression circuitry. • Without proper suppression, the operating life of an electric brake or clutch may be ...
