Everyone likes to play with high voltages, right?. Even though the danger of death goes up with every volt, it’s likely that a few readers will have at some time or other made fancy long sparks.
Now dubbed the Spirit Pilot Flyback, Longines' pilot's chronograph features a slimmed-down case and a refined dial.
The best watches in the world tend to have two things in common: a standout design and a fascinating backstory. As an accessory first and foremost, any great watch needs to look right with all of your ...
A common part used to create a high voltage is a CRT flyback transformer, having been a ubiquitous junk pile component. So many attempts to use them rely on brute force, with power transistors in ...
Peter Green explains advantages of LED drivers based on the flyback power-supply topology: They're inexpensive; they provide an isolated output that complies with UL safety requirements; they make it ...
Would you trust a watch with your life? As crazy as it sounds, way back when explorers were doing gnarly things for the first time ever like flying over the South Pole in the ’20s and ’30s, people ...
For more than half of its nearly 200-year existence, Swiss watch brand Longines has been neck-deep in aviation. This exacting universe has driven the brand to pioneer ...
Which topology do you chose when your specification calls for a non-isolated power supply and the output voltage falls between the minimum and maximum input voltage? Is the tried-and-true flyback used ...
To save energy and reduce the size and weight of equipment, higher efficiency and power density are required in flyback converter-based LED drivers, chargers, and other power applications. The flyback ...
The low-power (milliwatt) flyback transformer used in a switched-mode power supply (SMPS) needs to be designed with a gap in the magnetic path for maximum power delivery over temperature. Transformers ...
