Those readers who have experimented with winding their own inductors will know that it’s not an easy task, and when those inductors are handling high voltages it can be especially tricky to maintain ...

The WA 2293 is a winding analyzer that is optimized for testing three-phase power and distribution transformers. This test set uniquely combines winding resistance measurement, transformer turns ratio ...

Remember back…way back, to linear power supplies. Heavy transformers. Big capacitors. As part of my EDN CDEL build, I’ve decided to use just such a power supply as the front end to the two DC-DC PSU ...

When alternating current (AC) prevailed over direct current (DC) in the late 1800s, one of the deciding factors was the need for voltage levels to be raised and lowered throughout the power system to ...

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 ...
