Download this article in PDF format. If you search the internet for “transformer equivalent circuits,” you’ll get five pages of over 100 small circuit diagrams. Figures 1 and 2 show two typical ...

In this Design Idea, we explore several ways to use SPICE [1-3] circuit analysis software to determine the Thevenin and Norton equivalent circuit parameters of linear active networks. The Thevenin ...

This course introduces more advanced concepts of switched-mode converter circuits. Realization of the power semiconductors in inverters or in converters having bidirectional power flow is explained.

What does the equivalent circuit have to do with the impedance measurement? Does it really matter if we choose a series or parallel representation of a real life passive component? To obtain the most ...

Inductors range from RF coils used in communications through switchmode inductors used in power supplies and differential and common mode inductors in EMI filters. As switchmode power supply designs ...
