In many cases introducing an air gap can be of great use. Often people/engineers may think that introducing an air gap increases the maximum flux density a core can handle. This is actually not true…

Here at CET, we do custom transformer and inductor solutions every day. One such part was a high current custom choke desired by a customer of ours. The design of this part actually went through a…

What is an inductor, its purpose, and how does it work? Inductors are an electrical component made essentially of a coil of wire, often wound around a magnetic core. From our experts, here are some facts to…

A switched mode power supply (SMPS) is a more modern and efficient take on the older power supplies known as linear supplies.   LINEAR SUPPLIES Linear supplies would often take in line voltage, transform this…

When it comes to high voltage transformer design, it can be a bit tricky. When you’re trying to target a particular voltage one needs to account for things such as DCR losses in the windings. This is…

The forward converter does appear similar to the flyback transformer, but it is actually very different. A forward converter transformer transfers its energy instantly (transformer action), unlike the flyback which stores and then releases that…

Most everything we use of convenience and need these days is electrically powered. Most often we have access to a source of voltage at one, or maybe two particular values. Unfortunately in many cases, the…

When it comes to transformer design, there is an equation most of us are familiar with. This transformer equation is known as the “transformer design equation”. This transformer equation is applicable for inputs that are…
