Peter Green explains advantages of LED drivers based on the flyback power-supply topology: They're inexpensive; they provide an isolated output that complies with UL safety requirements; they make it ...

One trend that shows no size of ending is the move to smaller personal electronic devices. From smartphones to tablets, each successive generation is smaller and more powerful than the last. It’s ...

In some circuits, galvanic isolation is necessary due to safety considerations. In other circuits, functional isolation is used to block any interference on signals. A galvanically isolated power ...

Many times designers are given a set of non-isolated supply specifications where the output voltage falls between the minimum and maximum input voltage. They then have to decide between a flyback or ...

This document presents a design procedure of a single-stage flyback using Fairchild’s very own FL7732 integrated PWM controller. The principles of DCM flyback converter will also be discussed as well ...

Here, Rich Miron, Applications Engineer at Digi-Key Electronics explores the operation of switch mode power supplies and explores make Vs. buy decision process for power supplies. Miron also ...
