What is an NPN Transistor?
An NPN transistor is a type of bipolar junction transistor (BJT) that is commonly used in electronics for amplification and switching tasks.
How to improve flyback efficiency with a nondissipative clamp
In the standard form of a flyback converter, the leakage inductance of the transformer creates a voltage spike on the drain of the primary field-effect transistor (FET).
What it means to be the inventor of the IGBT
Following his achievement of the 2024 Millennium Technology Prize, Electronic Specifier recently spoke with the inventor of the IGBT, Professor Bantval Jayant Baliga, on what it means to him and what he hopes to see in the future.
2024 Millennium Technology Prize awarded for IGBT tech
The 2024 Millennium Technology Prize has been awarded to Professor Bantval Jayant Baliga of North Carolina State University for his groundbreaking innovation, the commercialisation of the Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) which has significantly reduced global electrical energy consumption and fossil fuel use.
Isolating a SEPIC by Texas Instruments
If someone asked you what topology to use for an isolated, low-power output, chances are your first thought would be a flyback. Although a flyback is an excellent topology with benefits such as low cost, low component count and ease of adding additional outputs, it still has several drawbacks. The field-effect transistor (FET) and rectifier ringing associated with flyback transformer leakage inductance create electromagnetic interference (EMI), r...
