In the conventional design of a forward converter, the maximum duty cycle can be extended above 50% by using a reset and clamp technique. This technique, known as RCD clamp circuitry, consists of a ...

In October, we described how to snub the voltage across output rectifiers at turn-on in the forward converter. Now, we look at snubbing the FET turn-off voltage in the flyback converter. Figure 1 ...

This video explains how diodes function as directional components in electronic circuits. Diodes allow current to flow in ...

The active clamp transformer reset technique offers many well-documented advantages over traditional single-ended reset techniques, including lower voltage stress on the main MOSFET, the ability to ...
