Read MoreHow Do Common Mode Chokes Work?
Leave a CommentA common mode choke is an electromagnetic component that blocks high frequencies by passing direct currents (DC) and alternating currents (AC) through an electrical circuit. The choke gets its name because it blocks or “chokes” high-frequency signals while low-frequency signals pass through. This blog will cover the various aspects of common mode chokes and address […]
Read MoreStep-Up vs. Step-Down Transformers & How They Work
Leave a CommentA transformer is an electrical component composed of two or more wire coils that transmit and convert electrical energy through electromagnetic induction. Transformers can increase or decrease electrical voltage by transferring energy from an input coil (known as the primary winding) to one or more outputs (secondary windings). These windings consist of a magnetic core […]
Read MoreWhat Is the Difference Between a Balun and RF Transformer?
Leave a CommentBaluns and RF transformers are two distinct types of transformers – while they share similarities, they have many key differences in terms of operational functions and characteristics. In this blog, we’ll overview these two transformer types and their distinctions. Balun Transformers Balun transformers are used to convert an unbalanced signal to a balanced signal and […]
Read MoreThe Complete Guide to Flyback Transformers
Leave a CommentWhen a power converter doesn’t require very high power – i.e. 200 watts or less – flyback converters are good choices due to their lower cost, decreased quantity of components, and simple design. Flyback converters are used in a variety of equipment, including televisions, LED lighting arrays, telecommunications, and industrial systems. One of the main […]
