I was involved with high-voltage power supplies in which transformers were wound using 3019-sized ferrite cores. Transformer structures were essentially the following: Figure 1 Pot core based ...

Flyback transformers are designed with all types of cores. Ferrite cores have several advantages such as ease of winding on a bobbin with integral terminal pins, better options for winding design ...

An earlier Design Idea illustrated one approach to that traditional headache for the analog designer: the dreaded ground loop (Reference 1). That Design Idea described a simple and efficient ...

Why is understanding high-voltage oil-filled transformer bushings so critical? High-voltage power transformers are an essential component of our nation's electric grid infrastructure. Bushings are the ...

Transformers for power applications often are limited in size by an acceptable temperature rise. An acceptable temperature rise of a transformer is usually dependent on limitations of the materials ...
