Editor’s note: I am pleased to bring you this excellent tutorial by Steve Subiry, Global Products Manager for Magnetics at Eaton. Enjoy. Magnetics are essential components in power topologies but they ...
As electronics becomes more prevalent in our daily lives, most users are aware of only a few component types. An internet search will bring up semiconductors, microprocessors and transistors, but ...
One of the seemingly most difficult aspects of power electronics is how to design power inductors and transformers. This specialty is often reserved for magnetics experts while electronics engineers ...
Magnetic components, particularly transformers operating at high frequencies and voltages, are intrinsically influenced by parasitic capacitance. This unintended capacitance between conductive ...
Magnetic components which can be either an inductor or a transformer depending on inductance ranges, make up Exxelia’s Chameleon Concept Magnetics (CCM) family. The components are available from New ...
This course covers the analysis and design of magnetic components, including inductors and transformers, used in power electronic converters. This course assumes prior completion of ECEA 5700: ...
In switched-mode power supplies (SMPS), magnetic components, namely inductors and transformers, play critical roles. Much of the SMPS design process relies on component specifications and simulation ...
