In this article, find out about new magnetics solutions from Bourns®, including BMS transformers, push-pull transformers, reinforced transformers, advanced-network transformers, planar-flyback transformers, and more.
New Amorphous Cores
New core magnetic technology from Bourns® helps create components that are more efficient and capable of higher power delivery with a smaller footprint than previous solutions.
Using Push-Pull Transformers to Isolate Power in 12V Applications
Find out how the Bourns® HCTSMB series of transformers are ideal solutions to isolate power in DC/DC converter systems. In this application note, learn about the benefits of push-pull topology and how to set up an isolated insulated gate bipolar transistor.
Selecting the Right Power Inductor for DC/DC Converters
In this design note, learn how the Bourns® PQ series of power inductors are great choices to use in DC/DC converters operating at more than 100W.
How to Select the Right Reinforced Transformer for High-Voltage Energy Storage Applications
Learn how the Bourns® HCTSM8 reinforced transformers are ideal choices for use in a parallel DC bus with multiple isolated low-power DC/DC converters. With multiple turns ratios available, transformers in this series can be custom-tailored to many different applications.
Using Planar Flyback Transformers for High-Voltage AC/DC Converters
For AC/DC power supplies that deliver less than 100W, flyback topologies are common. Planar versions of these topologies are becoming preferred, though, because they offer a low number of turns in helical windings and very low resistance. Find out how transformers from Bourns® meet the conversion demands of high-voltage systems.
Selecting BMS Transformers for Isolated Communications in High-Voltage Energy Storage
Battery management systems (BMS) manage the charging and discharging of battery packs. Find out how BMS transformers from Bourns®, with fully-insulated wire, are among the safest design choices to make when developing new battery systems.
Advanced Network Transformers
Learn how new transformers from Bourns® are helping designers meet the efficiency goals and small size requirements of the modern miniaturized devices demanded by consumers.
