Growing data center power demands are driving server equipment manufacturers to reach higher power-conversion efficiencies in order to reduce the thermal footprint of their systems. The transition ...

Let's look at key formulas that are the building blocks for the transfer of electricity: real and reactive power transfer formulas and their basics. The power triangle represents an essential building ...

Growing data center power demands are driving server end-equipment manufacturers to reach higher power-conversion efficiencies in order to reduce the thermal footprint of their systems. The transition ...

step-down transformers decrease the voltage. The transformer in the diagram above is a step-down transformer – there are fewer turns on the secondary coil than on the primary coil. Type of transformer ...

Flyback transformers come in two flavors: CCM (continuous conduction mode) and DCM (discontinuous conduction mode). The DCM version is the one we will develop here. The idea of the DCM flyback is that ...

I’m sure many readers would question why anyone would want to perform a relatively expensive insulation power factor test on an inexpensive transformer. Typically, if any testing is done, it will be ...
