Average current-mode control (CMC) requires that the total waveform of the current be reconstructed for the control loop. This article presents the steps required to select the transformer and how to ...

The standard for precise current measurement in instrumentation and other high reliability equipment applications has been the current-sense transformer. With the increasing availability of ...

Current transformers can perform circuit control, measure current for power measurement and control, and perform roles for safety protection and current limiting. They can also cause circuit events to ...

In power distribution systems, three-phase transformer configuration directly impacts system reliability and load management.

When developing TOPSwitch flyback power supplies, transformer design is usually the biggest stumbling block. Flyback transformers are not designed or used like normal transformers. Energy is stored in ...

One of the most dangerous locations in a power distribution system with regard to incident energy is that first panelboard on the secondary of a transformer. With some thought in your design — even if ...

Omicron has introduced a way to test current transformers at all lifecycle stages by using a testing method called "the modeling concept". The "traditional" way of testing a current transformer is to ...

It is important for machine design engineers to understand how transformers work so they can design machinery that operates optimally within the proper voltage ranges, as well as select the right ...
