Featured Article: [111] ZVS full-bridge converter employing an active snubber
The ZVS full bridge converter can be enhanced greatly by implementing an active snubber on the secondary side of the transformer.
Featured Article: [A24] Flyback Snubber and Clamp Design
In this article, we will talk about practical design techniques for the most commonly used snubber and clamp circuits for the flyback converter.
[A24] Flyback Converter Snubber Design
In this article, we will talk about practical design techniques for the most commonly used snubber and clamp circuits for the flyback converter.
[112] The Power of Dowell’s Equations and Curves
The standardized curves of Dowell’s equations are a superb tool for designing better high-frequency magnetics. A careful balance of layer count and wire or foil count is needed to reach an optimum design.
[110] Multi-Loop Control for Quasi-Resonant Converters
Very high frequency quasi-resonant converters can benefit from current mode control. Different techniques are used to generate clean waveforms at up to 10 MHz.
[109] The Rebirth of the Electric Car
In 2005, all of the major car manufacturers gave up on their electric programs. They were jolted awake again by Tesla who commercialized the TZero technology. You can also read about why the hydrogen economy is a non-starter.
[108] Custom Transformers – Leakage Inductance Considerations
One equation governs the saturation of a transformer, but the leakage inductance provides strong direction to a design.
[107] Alex Lidow at APEC 2019
A provocative talk from Dr. Alex Lidow on the "Death of Silicon"
[106] Custom Transformers – ONE Design Equation
As with inductors, the design of a transformer is governed by a single design equation. Obey this, and the path to creation of new designs is clear
[105] Designing Custom Inductors
Inductor manufacturers have made great progress in the families of standard parts. The selection of off-the-shelf parts in this category have increased dramatically in the past 10 years.
