Cooking food with fire is arguably the technology that propelled humans to become the dominant species on Earth. It’s pretty straightforward to achieve, just requiring a fuel source, a supply of ...

Flyback transformers (FBT), or line output transformers (LOPT), are designed to produce a very high voltage by storing energy in their magnetic windings. By storing this energy for a very short period ...

The low-power (milliwatt) flyback transformer used in a switched-mode power supply (SMPS) needs to be designed with a gap in the magnetic path for maximum power delivery over temperature. Transformers ...

Watch how a high voltage generator is built using TV flyback transformers and voltage multipliers to produce massive electric arcs. See powerful lightning discharges, high voltage experiments, and how ...

Isolated outputs are required for a broad range of DC/DC converter applications and not just the telecom- and datacom-mandated 48V isolation requirements. Isolation can be necessary for ...
