This is a dedicated evaluation board using emitter switched bipolar transistors (ESBTs) featuring the high-power, wide input range requirement of a highly demanding industrial market.
The maximum output power is 100 W. The need to handle both high output power and wide input voltage leads to the design of a flyback topology.
The flyback converter is a popular choice in applications where the required power is normally less than 200 W. The main reasons for its popularity are its simplicity, low cost and high efficiency for a small number of active components.
The evaluation board gives a solution for a power supply for 3-phase applications such as inverters for induction motors, welding machines, and UPS. |
