Exercise 3297

The Magnetic Parts Editor (MPE) is used for the design of transformers and inductors in switched mode power supply topologies. In particular, the MPE provides a complete transformer design cycle for forward converters, both single and double switch, and a flyback converter operating in discontinuous conduction mode. At the end of the design cycle, the MPE generates a comprehensive data sheet which manufacturers ...
