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 ...

When I start talking about ferroresonance, either eyes glaze over or people believe it is part of the flux capacitor in that 1981 DeLorean from that movie we all love. What is ferroresonance in power ...

When comparing the kilovolt-amp demand loading on Southern Company substations with the actual connected transformer nameplate kVA, it was apparent that, on average, the distribution transformers were ...

Here are the steps required to select the transformer and how to design the circuit needed to meet the end use in a manner that prevents transformer saturation Average current-mode control (CMC) ...

Part 2 of our QSPICE tutorial explores simulation in the transient domain, an essential feature for understanding the behavior of circuits over time. We will cover the simulation of a DC power supply.
