If you’d like to build a Jacob’s ladder, an ignition system for a flamethrower, or for some ungodly reason you need 15 kilovolts for a prop replica or cosplay build, this one is for you. It’s an easy ...

In recent electronic devices, the demand for energy savings has become increasingly difficult to meet due to very stringent requirements such as high efficiency, low power dissipation, and reduced ...

This design example report describes a 29 W high power factor, isolated flyback LED driver with DALI dimming. The design utilizes the LYT6067C from the LYTSwitch-6 family of devices. It has a voltage ...

Linear Technology Corporation’s LT3798 is an isolated flyback controller with single stage active power factor correction (PFC). Efficiencies greater than 86% can be achieved with output power levels ...

THE subject of electrostatics is not per se one of very great importance either to the electrical engineer or the student of electricity, and it is open to question whether a text-book devoted to the ...

Designers can zero in on specific components that are more likely to generate noise and choose the best strategy that resolves the specific problem. While switch-mode power supplies operate at ...
