Key takeaways: • Know the principle of suppressing oscillations with passive snubber circuits • Learn how to design a Flyback RCD snubber circuit based on analysis and example demonstration • Receive a brief introduction to the operating princip
To add soft-start functionality to a power regulator is simple, it just involves a few components that determine the startup transition time. If your DC/DC converter controller does not contain one of these circuits integrated into the die, then you can easily add one with the guidelines belo...
A snubber circuit is inserted for suppressing a suddenly rising voltage (dV/dt) to prevent malfunction. Toshiba recommends RS=47Ω and CS=0.033μF for a 100VAC system, and RS=100Ω and CS=0.1μF for a 200VAC system. Refer to Toshiba Application Note "Triac couplers-basic properties and ...
How should values be selected for the constants for the snubber circuit connected to the triac? Variable-capacitance diodes are abbreviated as VCDs. They are also called varicap diodes. Variable-capacitance diodes has a variable capacitance which is a function of the voltage between anode and catho...
For an HR application, this VFP voltage occurs only once at HR turn-off and does not have to be considered to evaluate the power losses. It should be also noted that, since the VFP phenomenon is due to the time needed to modulate the substrate resistivit...
It’s the parasitics of the power stage and board, including the leakage inductance of the transformer. The leakage inductance is caused by the magnetic flux from one winding in a transformer that does not couple to other windings. This energy dissipates externally to the transformer and an ov...
releasing the induced energy to protect the MOSFET, if necessary , Can also add RC snubber circuit (Snubber) to suppress voltage spikes. (Note that the diode direction should not be reversed. Of course, you can also directly choose a MOSFET with a large enough VDS, provided that you do no...
As a minimum, provide 5 cycles at full amplitude and then decrease the excitation smoothly no faster than 4 % per cycle, requiring 30 cycles or 500 ms at 60 Hz. For closed-loop devices, additional care must be taken to be sure the compensation coil does not negate the demagnetization ...

Switch-node waveform without additional small input ceramic capacitor For phase-node ringing, it is common practice to use a boot resistor to slow down the gate speed and a snubber circuit for alleviation. However, both methods incur addi- tional power loss and sacrifice efficiency. Phase-node ...
