What’s a flyback converter?

A flyback converter is an isolated buck-boost converter used in AC and DC applications. It rapidly switches between on and off states, using a MOSFET and diode to control the switching. It can have multiple outputs, but a snubber circuit may be needed to reduce ringing voltage. Current mode control is essential for stabilizing output […]

What’s a flyback transformer?

A flyback transformer generates high voltage in CRT devices. It has high requirements for high voltage isolation and its internal structure must be moisture-free. Unlike normal transformers, it generates high voltage in its secondary winding. Impedance depends on frequency and line output transformers are used for power, audio, and other applications. Vacuum tube circuits use […]
