A common part used to create a high voltage is a CRT flyback transformer, having been a ubiquitous junk pile component. So many attempts to use them rely on brute force, with power transistors in ...

The best watches in the world tend to have two things in common: a standout design and a fascinating backstory. As an accessory first and foremost, any great watch needs to look right with all of your ...

Peter Green explains advantages of LED drivers based on the flyback power-supply topology: They're inexpensive; they provide an isolated output that complies with UL safety requirements; they make it ...

Now dubbed the Spirit Pilot Flyback, Longines' pilot's chronograph features a slimmed-down case and a refined dial.

Would you trust a watch with your life? As crazy as it sounds, way back when explorers were doing gnarly things for the first time ever like flying over the South Pole in the ’20s and ’30s, people ...

Which topology do you chose when your specification calls for a non-isolated power supply and the output voltage falls between the minimum and maximum input voltage? Is the tried-and-true flyback used ...

To save energy and reduce the size and weight of equipment, higher efficiency and power density are required in flyback converter-based LED drivers, chargers, and other power applications. The flyback ...

For more than half of its nearly 200-year existence, Swiss watch brand Longines has been neck-deep in aviation. This exacting universe has driven the brand to pioneer ...

A common part used to create a high voltage is a CRT flyback transformer, having been a ubiquitous junk pile component. So many attempts to use them rely on brute force, with power transistors in ...

For the PDF version of this article, click here. In last month's Power Design column, we examined the functional principles of continuous mode (or incomplete energy transfer mode) of a flyback ...
