Everyone likes to play with high voltages, right?. Even though the danger of death goes up with every volt, it’s likely that a few readers will have at some time or other made fancy long sparks.

Applications ranging from consumer electronics to high-power energy-conversion systems leverage the benefits of dc-dc power converters in their designs. Among these, flyback converters are popular for ...

Buck regulators are usually the first choice when you design nonisolated step-down regulators unless the ratio of V IN to V OUT is greater than 10, the input voltage is high, or both. Low duty cycle ...

This design example report discusses the 12 W power factor corrected (valley fill) non-dimmable isolated flyback, constant voltage LED driver employing TinySwitch™-4 TNY286PG. This design operates an ...

LED replacement bulbs include integrated driver electronics employing a variety of circuit topologies. But LED light fixtures frequently require standalone LED power supplies, sometimes called modules ...

Having hacked away with high voltage for many years I’ve ended up using a large number of very different high voltage sources. I say sources and not power supplies because I’ve even powered a corona ...
