A DC to DC converter is basically a switch-mode power supply, designed to work either as a boost-converter to step-up a low voltage DC to a higher voltage DC, or […]
Modifying XL4015 Buck Converter with an Adjustable Current Limiter
The post explains a simple way to enhance the the XL4015 DC to DC buck converter with an adjustable current limiter, which seems to be missing in the original module. […]
Bidirectional Switch
In this post we learn about MOSFET bidirectional power switches, which can be used for operating a load across two points bidirectionally. This is simply done by connecting two N-channel, […]
How Transformers Work
According to the definition given in Wikipedia an electrical transformer is a stationary equipment that exchanges electrical power across a couple of closely wound coils, through magnetic induction. A constantly […]
How to Calculate Ferrite Core Transformers
Calculating ferrite transformer is a process in which engineers evaluate the various winding specifications, and core dimension of the transformer, using ferrite as the core material. This helps them to […]
How to Design a Flyback Converter – Comprehensive Tutorial
A flyback configuration is the preferred topology in SMPS application designs mainly because it guarantees complete isolation of the output DC from the input mains AC. Other features include low […]
