Download this article in PDF format. If you search the internet for “transformer equivalent circuits,” you’ll get five pages of over 100 small circuit diagrams. Figures 1 and 2 show two typical ...

This redesigned series of electronic transformers complies with the new UL standard (2108) for low-voltage lighting systems. Using an enhanced “auto reset” function, the transformers are protected ...

MR16 halogen lamps normally operate from a low-voltage AC source typically generated by a low-frequency AC transformer or by a high-frequency electronic transformer. In most MR16 applications, the ...

This course introduces more advanced concepts of switched-mode converter circuits. Realization of the power semiconductors in inverters or in converters having bidirectional power flow is explained.

Like many passive component markets, magnetic component manufacturers face challenges in shrinking component size and weight while also delivering higher performance. Inductors and transformers are ...

A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11777412B2) describes a switching power supply apparatus that includes a switching circuit and an even number of transformers. The switching circuit ...
