Last month's Code Calculations article covered transformer calculation definitions and some specifics of delta transformer calculations. This month we turn our attention to the differences between ...

Using a flyback topology to generate a high voltage is a common approach. The voltage can charge a capacitor for a high-energy pulse. Such an approach is used in defibrillator capacitors, photoflash ...

Have you ever noticed those metal canisters attached to utility poles? Those are transformers. They convert high-voltage electricity from power plants to lower-level electricity that’s safe for homes ...
