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 ...

A common part used to create a high voltage is a CRT flyback transformer, having been a ubiquitous junk pile component. So many attempts to use them rely on brute force, with power transistors in ...

In this article, I'll show you how to build a simplistic circuit to generate negative ions. Negative ions have been known to contribute to fresher air, happier mood, and general health benefits.

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 ...

LED-based light fixtures and bulb replacements arenow rapidly replacing incandescent, halogen, andCFL (compact-fluorescent-lamp) light sources inmany general-lighting applications. Flyback ...

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 ...
