Bidirectional Switch
In this post I have explained about MOSFET bidirectional power switches, which can be used for operating a load across two points bidirectionally. This is simply done by connecting two N-channel, or P-channel MOSFETs back to back in series with the specified voltage line. What is a Bidirectional Switch A bidirectional power switch (BPS) is […]
How to Calculate Ferrite Core Transformers
Calculating ferrite transformer is a process in which engineers evaluate the various winding specifications, and core dimension of the transformer, using ferrite as the core material. This helps them to create a perfectly optimized transformer for a given application. The post presents a detailed explanation regarding how to calculate and design customized ferrite core transformers. […]
